Sewell Mill Library & Cultural Center welcomes back MiniCon, a free fan convention, on June 22, 2024, from 10am-5pm. Fans of all ages are invited to celebrate everything fantasy, Sci-Fi, and anime with their community.

MiniCon 2024 is set to be the best one yet! “We are all so excited to see MiniCon return once again in an even bigger “mini” fashion…[E]very corner of Sewell Mill will be buzzing with activity,” says Recreation Program Coordinator Christopher McDoniel.

Young fans can start their day with an intergalactic themed story time and craft before walking in the Children’s Costume Parade. Throughout the day, fans of all ages can attend a variety of panel discussions, watch live entertainment, and shop the Artist Alley that features 30 local artists. Cosplay enthusiasts are invited to enter the cosplay contest in one of three categories: Youth, Teen, or Adult. Guests can wrap up the day singing along in Cosplay Karaoke.

Local food trucks, C’est Tou Bon 2 Eat and Pelican’s Snowballs, will be next to the flagpole with delicious food and treats.

Sewell Mill Library and Cultural Center are under Cobb County Libraries and Cobb PARKS, and they offer creative programming through their gallery, arts classes, and Creative Studios in addition to other library resources. For more information regarding MiniCon 2024, email smcc@cobbcounty.org or call 770-509-2711.
