Cape Con at Santori Library was an absolute BLAST!

Aurora Buzz

Posted On: September 25, 2024

Share

It was our first ever comic con experience, and my niece and I had the best time! From superhero story time, intro to cosplay, Pokémon meetups, to learning game development—it was packed with fun! 🎮🦸‍♀️


One of the coolest moments? Meeting Makerfishmeal, who makes her amazing cosplay outfits from scratch and teaches others how to do it too. My niece was totally inspired and can’t wait to create her own Halloween costume this year! 🎃✨


Oh, and she even got to dive into a Dungeons & Dragons adventure! 🐉🎲 Cape Con really brought imagination to life! 💫


🎥 Check out our video below and see all the action for yourself! #CapeCon #SantoriLibrary #CosplayMagic #ComicConFun #FamilyTime #AuroraBuzz
