Anthrocon 2010 Programming Schedule will be available in June
What's there to do at Anthrocon? Aside from meeting all those people you've been curious about, that is? Anthrocon provides a strong schedule of premiere anthropomorphics programming. That schedule will be finalized about 2-3 weeks before the convention so you can plan. To get an idea of what sort of things go on and when things happne, you can look at last year's schedule by clicking here. Below are some of the highlights of the programming fare we will be offering:
-
- Representing scores of participating artists, the Anthrocon Art Show exhibits and sells original artworks of a science fiction, fantasy and/or fannish nature, especially those relating to anthropomorphics. Artists offer works in various media, both flat (sketches, pen-and-ink drawings, paintings, etc.) and 3-dimensional (sculpture, masks, costumes, etc.) for display and sale.
-
- Artists Alley is a place for artists to sit and draw, to show off their artistic talents, and maybe even to sell a print or two. It complements the Art Show as a showcase for the amazing creativity found in the Anthropomorphics community.
-
- Anthrocon hosts one of the largest dealers rooms of any Anthropomorphics convention in the world. A wide variety of anthropomorphic-related books and media as well as a plethora of art and other furry-related items are available throughout all three days of the con.
-
- Each year Anthrocon picks a different charity for which the furry community can benefit via an auction. The charity for 2009 is the Animal Rescue League Wildlife Rehabilitation Center. Learn more about them on our Charity Page!

Dances
- Some of the larger social events are our dances which feature a wide variety of dance music as well as "fursuit-friendly" events. Check them out on Thursday, Friday or Saturday.
