DARKOVER GRAND COUNCIL MEETING XXXIII
NOVEMBER 26-28, 2010
TIMONIUM, MARYLAND

Welcome to Darkovercon!

Darkovercon is a science fiction and fantasy convention held every year over Thanksgiving weekend in Timonium, Maryland. Because we are a small convention (roughly 500 people) you have a chance to see our guests up close and personal, meet new people, shop undisturbed, attend workshops, etc. – something you can't always do at larger conventions.

This year we will be celebrating Darkover 33, and like all good hobbits we will be coming of age! We will be having assorted programming in honor of this.

Besides several full tracks of science fiction/fantasy programming, we offer assorted music programming – primarily, but not exclusively folk, workshops where you can learn assorted arts or crafts, video programming, esoteric programing and more. This year we are planning a full track of steampunk programming. See the links below for more information about our convention.

And of course, if you have any questions about Darkovercon, feel free to contact the ChairAlton, Jaelle.

Looking forward to seeing you there!

ACTIVITIES

Besides main programming (Greenspring Ballroom 3-6), alternate programming (Chesapeake Room 3-6), steampunk programming, videos, workshops and esoteric programming (Ridgley Room 2), there will be a Huckster's Room (The Atrium), Art Show (Chesapeake Room 1-2) and Con Suite. We also have gaming (Boardroom), filking, a Costume (Optional) Ball, a Regency Ball, and an art auction. There will be a track of musical performances , including a performance by Clam Chowder on Saturday evening. Note: you must have a convention membership to attend the concert.
