Where is Genghis Con held? Might sound like a stupid question but I just went to my first con . . . SoCal. I am trying to get info on other cons near AZ

Genghis Con is the largest game convention west of the Mississippi River until you get to the west coast. Our head count attendance is between 1400-1600 (if you must do door count attendance that would be 3000-3500). The convention is held at the Hyatt Regency in the Denver Tech Center February 16-19th, 2006.

The list of attendee manufacturers and dealers is also listed on the website.

The Genghis Con XXVII website is now live. So you can get a complete listing of the events and register. The painting and sculpting classes are limited to 6 people so get your registrations in early. I need to keep Anne busy while she is there.
This link will take you straight to the painting conference section. You are on your own from there.

Though I won't be teaching, I'll be there as well.
Oh wait...I've gone and scared everyone away. Sorry about that.

OK...so it's coming up later this week. And no, I don't have anything to enter in the contests. I'm debating even leaving my painting gear at home for the weekend.

You should bring your painting gear. I don't have any internet access in the painting room.
