Chambanacon - Programming

ChambanaCon is not just a relax-a-con. It’s the longest running relax-a-con in Central Illinois, so we take the responsibility of promoting Class A#1 Relaxation very seriously. We make a concerted effort to make sure that programming doesn't get in the way of having a good time, doesn't start too early in the morning, doesn't interfer with conversation, conviviality, and commeradery. There's no masquerade -- too much work, man -- but rogue Hearts tournaments or Hoof & Mouth playoffs spring up in the blink of an eye, along with LARPing, sing-a-longs... whatever distractions melt away the stresses of life.

Basic info can be found below. Check out the links for in-depth info.

ALL NIGHT CONSUITE
The consuite at our new hotel is probably THE most perfect location for a consuite EVER! As usual, it will be stocked with coffee, tea, soda, and a wonderful assortment of fruits, veggies AND home-baked goodies that always includes a wonderful supply of chocolate in several varieties.

ART SHOW
There is a modest hanging fee of only $.25 per piece, along with the traditional and reasonable commission of only 10% of selling price. Prints are accepted for immediate sale. We accept mail-in art accompanied by a check or money order for return shipping. Art should be of a science fiction / fantasy nature.
