FORKS — Raincon will return to Forks from 4 p.m. to midnight Friday and from 10 a.m. to midnight Saturday and Sunday.
The free comic convention will be at the Rainforest Arts Center, 35 N. Forks Ave., Forks.
The three-day convention will focus on independent artists, regional creators and fandoms of the Pacific Northwest.
Raincon is designed to be a local hub for pop culture enthusiasts, moving away from the size of major conventions and focusing instead on genuine connection between fans and creators.
Attendees can look forward to:
• Artist Alley, a curated selection of local and regional comic artists, illustrators and crafters who will sell original prints, books and merchandise.
• An indie comic focus with dedicated space for small press publishers and independent writers to discuss their projects and connect with new readers.
• A cosplay contest with categories for handmade costumes and beginner entries.
• Discussions and workshops focusing on PNW folklore in fiction, the craft of comic book writing and local creative industries.
