CONsole Room 2014 Silent Auction

We’re excited to announce that we will be hosting a silent auction at CONsole Room 2014! Our friends at the Geek Partnership Society will be running the auction, with items available for viewing onĀ the 16th (Friday) and for bidding on the 17th (Saturday). The winning bidders (who can pay with cash, check, or card) will be able to take their item(s) home on the 18th (Sunday). All proceeds from the silent auction will go towards furthering the GPS mission, which you can learn more about by visiting their website.

Although we have a number of items for the auction, we could still use some more, especially Doctor Who-related items. Have something you want to donate? Contact GPS at silentauction@geekpartnership.org with the following information:

  • Item information – basic description and estimated value
  • Donor information – name, address, and e-mail

Thank you in advance to GPS for doing this!

Doctor Who-Inspired Art & Writing Contest

Have you heard about the contest we’re running in conjunction with CONsole Room 2014? Minneapolis artist and CONsole Room attendee Natalie Buske Thomas is running a competition for all of you artists and authors! The contest includes categories for both art and writing, so whether you’re an experienced painter or a budding author, we want to hear from you. There are two categories for the competitionĀ – Fan Favorite and Judges’ Favorite – and entries will be accepted through noon on Friday, 16 May. That means you have two weeks to get those entries in!
