For those of you who are not familiar with Sherlock Seattle, we are an organization that puts on a convention each year to celebrate all things Sherlock Holmes. Our last convention was in January of 2015 and our next convention won’t be until October of 2016. In order to help tide people over the extra long wait between conventions, we want to throw a mini-convention or what is known in the biz as a “relax-a-con”, which basically means a pared down event that focuses more on being social and interacting with your fellow fans and having a fun time. But in order to do this, we need to make sure we have enough money to host it, which is where you come in!
We need to secure funding early to make sure that we can afford to host the event at our preferred location, the Broadway Performance Hall, and also to determine just how much of a party we can throw. In short, the more money we can make, the better the convention! We need to make $3,500 to cover a two day event at BPH and all of the expenses that entails. We are looking at January 23rd & 24th if we reach our funding goal.
Please consider supporting this event!
- If you want to attend the event, and we hope that you will, the easiest way to support us is to buy your membership now on our Indiegogo page!
- If you can’t attend but want to donate to support the convention and Sherlock Seattle in general, we have a number of inexpensive options for you to not only help out but get some fun and entertaining swag as well!
