Midwest Ethnic Convention for Comics and Arts

#MECCAcon2018💥#MECCAconSSU2018💥 http://MECCACON.wordpress.com Midwest Ethnic Convention for Comics and Arts - MECCA, aka MECCAcon, is a large comic book and artist convention, as well as an International Film Festival, held all year long in many parts of the U.S. and abroad. Unlike many "comic cons", we don't just focus only on comic books. Art has several mediums, and we want to highlight them all. MECCAcon will highlight comics, science fiction, steampunk, fine art, music, graffiti, dj artists, handmade artisans, african belly dance, urban gardening, fashion, african martial arts, and more. Lastly, at this convention, while comic books are the main focus, we want to make sure that ALL forms of art are highlighted. At the end of the day, art is and always will be ART, creative expression. Midwest Ethnic Convention for Comics and Art, aka M.E.C.C.A, or "MECCAcon", is a division of Amonyet Enterprises. The organization was founded October 2013, by founder and CEO, Maia "CROWN" Williams
