The countdown continues and we are now just 21 weeks away from the grand opening of the inaugural Chicago Steampunk Exposition, a massive festival of all things retro-futuristic. This past week we highlighted several of the vendors and artists whom you will find in our giant Exhibitor Hall (Grand Ballroom) and Artist Alley (South Foyer).
Exposition Exhibitors
This week we continued our series of feature articles on the wide array of vendors, artists, authors, and exhibitors whom you shall find at the Chicago Steampunk Exposition.
As the weeks continue to countdown, we will bring you more profiles to highlight all the amazing things to see and buy at the Exposition. We do have a few spots left in the Exhibitor Hall and Artists’ Alley, so if you would like to apply please click HERE.
