Wincon
From Super-wiki
WinCon is planned on October 15-17, 2010 at The Double Tree Hotel in Chicago. It grew out from the Supernatural specific WinchesterCon which ran from 2006-2009, into a panfandom event celebrating fan culture.
Wincon is a by the fans, for the fans operation. Our goal is to provide an annual multifandom gathering for fanfen and provide a safe space for women and under-represented fans of pop media in all its infinite varieties (just like us) to come and meet, hang out, discuss their shows or fandoms, the fic written about them, the fanart made for them, party and have a good time. In other words, a giant slumber party where we can all do the fannish things we do online in person and in our pajamas (or whatever you feel like wearing!) No official personnel from any show or fandom is affiliated with this convention, nor will there be any appearances by any show actors, celebrities, writers, or other personnel.
