From the Board:
We regretfully announce that MuseCon 7 was the final MuseCon. Due to budget constraints we will not be holding future conventions. We are discussing our best options for continuing MuseCon's mission of supporting creativity.
Thank you for the years of support we've had from the staff and the attendees of MuseCon.
Sincerely, the MuseCon Board of Directors.
Celebrate Creativity!
Since the dawn of time, we have always had stories. These stories recorded the wondrous,
the fantastical, the dystopian and the utopian. The past and the future. Our muses have long
intertwined story with our hopes, dreams, and fears. This is the year we release those muses
and follow their dealings with our inner worlds. This is year we celebrate the old myths, and
create the new ones. The year we weave a new story. Join us, for a celebration of creativity
in all of its myriad forms. Join us, and experience story as you have never experienced it before.
MuseCon is a weekend-long convention for artists, musicians, inventors, gadgeteers, makers,
tinkerers, and creative people of all ages.
To get started, you will need to register for the convention.
News & Corrections
We will attempt to post breaking announcements to our Facebook Page & Twitter Feed in addition to signage at-con.
For your convenience we have a printable version of our grid available, as well as an electronic version of the program book. | |
Klingon Pop Warrior will be performing after OPENING Ceromonies on Friday evening, not after Sunday's Closing Ceremonies as erroneously printed in our Program Book. | |
See our Programming page & Mobile Guide for details on recently added sessions. |

NEW SESSIONS!

Cancelled Sessions - due to unforseen circumstances the following have been cancelled.

If you are coming south on 53, you can get off at the Thiorndale RD exit but remember the mantra KEEP LEFT. If you get into a right lane you will have a hard time moving left. Rather than the Thorndale Exit, our Hotel Liaison recommends using Biesterfield. Use the left of the 2 right turn lanes and turn south on 53 at the first light, then turn left at the 2nd light at Devon Ave and turn right at Park boulevard.
Coming north on 53, be in the right exit lane. The left lane puts you on 390. Once you take the right lane away from 390, THEN KEEP LEFT.
Our Hotel Liaison prefers using surface streets 53, 83 or Arlington Heights to get to Devon. Take Devon to Park
Regrettable Announcement
