Coeur d'Con

Coeur d'Con Coeur d’Con is a comic convention held in, and organized by the Coeur d'Alene Public Library But what would a comic con be without costumes?

Coeur d’Con is a comic convention celebrating books, movies, games, manga, comics, and all of the many avenues of geek culture. Entrance to the convention is free, with local businesses, artists, and experts exhibiting and selling their goods throughout the library, offering a plethora of unique wares and perspectives on pop culture. Library staff and guests will offer a variety of themed crafts,

games, and other activities, with events for every age group throughout the day. All library-led crafts and activities will be free for participants. Attendees can explore new and emerging technologies, both fun and functional, with the SPLAT! Tech Petting Zoo, and gamers of all types can take a few minutes to challenge opponents in the open gaming lounge or in our tabletop gaming center. Fans are encouraged to dress to impress for Coeur d’Con, as a cosplay (costume) contest will take place in the Community Room of the library. As this will be a family-friendly event, participants are encouraged to keep costumes tasteful and appropriate for the audience. Are you a budding artist looking to show your skills to the community? Enter the Coeur d’Con Fan Art Contest by downloading the application from the Art Show & Contest tab or by picking up an entry form at the library. Submissions will be due by closing Friday July 29th, and will be displayed from August 1st through the convention on August 13th. Winners will be selected by popular vote from each age category: pre-school (0-6), kids (7-12), teens (13-17), and adults (18+), and will be contacted at the conclusion of the convention. Pieces can be 2- or 3-dimensional, and as with costumes, should be appropriate for a family-friendly event. Interested in participating as a panelist, presenter, guest, vendor, or artist? Check out the Vendors & Artists tab, where you can access applications, keep up with the latest updates, and contact event coordinators. You can also RSVP to the event on Facebook.

Hello Coeur d'Con Friends,
We want to thank everyone who has supported Coeur d’Con over the years. It’s been an incredible journey celebrating comics, creativity, and community with all of you. While Coeur d’Con has brought us many unforgettable moments, we’ve decided to take a step back from organizing the event this year.
​
This wasn’t an easy decision, but it gives us the opportunity to focus our energy on some exciting new directions. We’re thrilled to be offering an awesome all-ages program schedule packed with fun, discovery, and imagination for everyone. Plus, we’ve added a brand-new Pokémon GO Community Day program—a great way to get outside, connect with fellow trainers, and explore together! Check out our website (cdalibrary.org) or pop into the library to see the full schedule and find something new to love.

We’re proud of what Coeur d’Con has meant to our community, and we’re just as excited about what’s ahead. Thank you for being part of the story, we can’t wait to see you this summer!

With appreciation,
Coeur d’Alene Public Library
