A Fan-Operated Science Fiction and Fantasy Literary and Filk Convention in the Dallas/Fort Worth Area
|
FenCon III Saturday Programming Highlights:
Lots to do at FenCon III on Saturday with as many as ten tracks
of programming running from 10am to 5pm. Start your day with Joy Marie
Ledet's silver clay demo at 10am then check out the Jim Butcher Block at noon. If
you like a bit of creative chaos with your dramatic readings, check out the Yard Dog Press
road show at 2pm. Flash back to the golden age of radio with the Generic Radio
Workshop casting session at 3pm or the Buzz Blaster Radio Play at 4pm. Then the
night of great programming really kicks in with Heather Alexander's Music GoH concert at
5pm and the Alan Dean Foster Keynote Address at 6pm. Get your bidding arm ready
for the Art and Charity Auction at 7pm then strap in for our signature event: the
FenCon Cabaret at 9pm featuring the All-Star Git-Down Filk-Sing Hootenanny™
and our Costume Competition and Show. Then party all night with open filking and so
much more.
