Do you love comics, manga and/or anime? Want to cosplay as your favorite character? Or are you an experienced cosplayer looking for tips? Join us for a special visit from cosplayer Mink the Satyr! Mink will be discussing the creative process and her experiences, showing off her costumes, and sharing tips.

More about Carly, aka Mink: Carly has been cosplaying since 2012, though she has been sewing costumes since 2005. She is also a LARPer, an elementary special education teacher, and a lover of hedgehogs. She enjoys making costumes of characters she loved growing up, and characters she see herself in: those with personality traits that match her own.
