Welcome to my Sakura-Con Page!

The Sakura-Con convention is sponsored by A.N.C.E.A, Asia Northwest Cultural Education Association and held at the Washington State Convention Center in Seattle. Sakura-Con is an all volunteer run non-profit organization dedicated to creating understanding and cultural awareness through the mediums of animation and manga (animation in printed form)

Below are my pics of the Con and the fun we had Cosplaying (costume playing). I also host a panel presentation with help from my fellow animation art collectors. I get to meet and ask questions of voice actors and others involved in the animation industry. I enjoy concerts by Japanese artists, Taiko Drummers, Kabuki actors and even participate in games such as the "cosplay chess game" where we are the chess pieces.

Its a Comic Party!
