non-profit organization that sets up free libraries at conventions for all attendees to enjoy. They bring over 5000 manga, American graphic novels, webcomics, and novels for fans to enjoy. By setting up a quiet place for people to relax at conventions, the Library seeks to promote literacy through the medium that they love.<\/p><p>The Library was founded in 2013, debuting at Nashicon in Columbia, South Carolina. Since then, the Library has been guests at conventions all over the eastern United States and their collection becomes larger with every passing month, having expanded to all forms of graphic novels. Their expert staff of librarians and library assistants are also experts in all things manga and graphic novels, so feel free to ask them for recommendations for new series!<\/p><\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ad0b173 elementor-widget elementor-widget-eael-lightbox\" data-id=\"ad0b173\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"eael-lightbox.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\n\n\t\t<div data-lightbox-type=\"lightbox_type_content\" data-lightbox-type-url=\"\" data-lightbox-trigger-pageload=\"1\" data-lightbox-closebtn-color=\"#ffffff\" class=\"eael-lightbox-wrapper\" data-trigger=\"eael_lightbox_trigger_button\" data-lightbox-id=\"lightbox_666673203cca2\" data-type=\"inline\" data-src=\"#eael-lightbox-window-666673203cca2\" data-popup-layout=\"eael-lightbox-popup-standard\" data-main-class=\"eael-lightbox-modal-popup-ad0b173\" data-close_button=\"yes\" data-esc_exit=\"yes\" data-click_exit=\"yes\" data-effect=\"animated mfp-move-right\" data-trigger-element=\".eael-modal-popup-link-666673203cca2\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"eael-lightbox-btn\">\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"eael-trigger-image eael-modal-popup-link eael-modal-popup-link-666673203cca2\" src=\"https:\/\/metroconventions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/ClockworkThumbnail-1.jpg\" alt=\"\">\t\t\t<\/div><!-- close .eael-lightbox-btn -->\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<div class=\"eael-lightbox-popup-window eael-lightbox-popup-window-ad0b173 lightbox_type_content\" id=\"eael-lightbox-window-666673203cca2\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"eael-lightbox-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"eael-lightbox-header\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"eael-lightbox-title\">Clockwork Carousel Creations<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"eael-lightbox-content\"><p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-15325 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/metroconventions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/screen-shot-2022-04-14-at-4.35.51-pm-222x300-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"222\" height=\"300\" \/><\/p><p>We\u2019re excited to bring\u00a0<strong>Clockwork Carousel Creations back into their own DEDICATED workshop room<\/strong>\u00a0for METROCON 2024!<\/p><p>Clockwork Carousel has been a guest panelist presenter and teaching group for many years at METROCON, and this year we\u2019ve partnered with them again to ensure that their frequently standing-room-only classes and panels are available to as many attendees as possible!<\/p><p><b>Clockwork will be running several different make-and-take workshops throughout the weekend<\/b>\u00a0\u2013 topics are TBA but past workshops have focused on working with resin, silicone molds, advanced curing techniques, etc. \u2013 be sure to sign up for one or all of these workshops in advance, as they have filled up quickly in the past!<\/p><p>Each workshop has a separate associated cost.
