Cosplitality - Costume and cosplay have been at Worldcon since the beginning, when Forry Ackerman and Myrtle Douglas wore their “Futuricostumes” in 1939. Worldcon 76 will feature a special Cospitality Lounge in the exhibit hall for photo ops, costume repair, workshops, Richard Man’s Cosplay transformations exhibit and more. We’ll have a headless lounge with cool air and water in room 232. Whether you are a costumer, cosplayer, or just want to make fun stuff, please stop by.
Our workshops include fannish bottle making, celtic knotwork lanyards, fascinators, hat blocking, cold enameling and more. You can sign up for workshops at the info desk.
We have props and photos for people taking selfies, and photographers on staff during scheduled hours if you would like a professional assist.
Our Headless Lounge is in room 232.
Cospitality is in the exhibit hall. Open Hours: 12 noon – 6 pm Thursday 10 am – 6 pm Friday, Saturday and Sunday 10 am – 3 pm Monday
