2020 Show Postponed

(Posted July 9, 2020)

Hello Friends and Fans of Capital City Comic Con,

We hope you all are staying healthy and safe. Sadly, we must postpone our 2020 show. Postponing the show has been a very hard decision to make, and up until last week we were still optimistic that the show would go on. Because Michigan’s Governor changed the COVID-19 recovery progress phase from Phase 4 (Improving), to Phase 2 (Persistent Spread), we are certain that the possibility our state will recover to a Phase where our event could safely happen is unlikely.

We have not determined a new date yet, though we are targeting late Winter or early Spring of 2021. Hopefully the pandemic is under control and we can provide the type of experience that you have come to expect from Capital City Comic Con. Our new venue, The Summit Sports and Ice Complex, is working with us diligently to find an optimal date.

We are still planning on awarding our annual Capital City Comic Con Art Scholarship to an MSU student later this summer. We offer this scholarship exclusively to current students at Michigan State University to encourage the study of comic art. Our comprehensive jury awards the scholarship to one student based on artistic merit of original artwork submissions.

Keep an eye on www.facebook.com/capcitycomiccon, and here on our website to stay up to date on news and information.

Regards,

Bryan Harris & Tim Hunt

Our event hosts over a hundred vendors, creators, artists, writers, groups and charities each year. A portion of our proceeds go to The Reading People at the Capital Area Literacy Coalition to help fight illiteracy. We established the Capital City Comic Con Art Scholarship in 2016, an annual $1,000 scholarship for Michigan State University students in the comic art program. Formerly held at the Breslin Student Events center at Michigan State University, Capital City Comic Con is now at The Summit Sports and Ice Complex as of 2020.
