17 weeks left to go the Chicago Steampunk Exposition, and this week saw the release for sale of one day tickets, High Tea tickets, and Banquet tickets (see the bottom of this page for sales links).
The program is coming together delightfully and with our latest review of the schedule we can assure those of the more darker Victorian leaning that the Gothic Parlour has a lot of panels and presentations looming in the shadows . . .
Exposition Exhibitors
This week we have continued to feature some of our amazing vendors, authors, and artists whom you will find in the Exhibitor Hall and Artist Alley, which is poised to be perhaps the BIGGEST collection of exhibitors at a Midwest Steampunk event!
