WNC Cosplay League Presents: International Cosplay Day Meet-Up
Come out to Carrier Park to hang out on a day that celebrates a geeky art that has become a passion to many, many people across the entire world!
We will be providing $1 bottles of water, however, please bring any additional refresments or accompaniments for cosplay changes that you will need. As this is a public park surrounded by children, we are going to request that you be respectful in your cosplay (please be decent) and in your speech (keeping cussing to a minimum).
Keep your eyes peeled! We may get visited by the talented Kittenkaboodle Cosplay!
We should have numerous photographers taking various photos throughout the event. Please be aware you will need to bring or ask them about release forms if that is an area that concerns you.
Remember! Cosplay is NOT consent! If you are not comfortable with your photo being taken by someone or if you are being harassed, please find any of these cosplays/cosplayers/group members, and we will try to help you out!:
