CulpeperCon 2026: The Fantastic 4th Edition

CulpeperCon 2026: The Fantastic 4th Edition returns to the Culpeper County Library with Host Supreme Friends of the Culpeper County Library for two epic days of fandom, creativity, and community fun! This FREE, family-friendly convention celebrates storytelling through comics, cosplay, and pop culture, welcoming everyone from lifelong comic readers to young artists and fans of all ages.
The excitement begins on Friday evening, March 27, with the fan-favorite Cosplay Runway & Contest, where heroes, villains, and icons from every universe take the stage to showcase their
creativity.
The story continues Saturday, March 28, when the library becomes a hub of action for the Main Event Day with a keynote presentation, artist alley, workshops, games, and more.
This year’s featured keynote speaker is John Gallagher: art teacher, art director, and co-founder of Kids Love Comics, an organization that promotes literacy through graphic novels. John is also the creator of the hit Max Meow series and brings his passion for storytelling to life through workshops that inspire kids to create their own comics.
