Part 2.... Game a con and more...

Hello all,

Wow ! so backed up on stories and projects.... We will be making 2 blog posts today so grab a cup of Joe, glass of tea,  warm cider, or your favorite beverage and catch up with me, your Balcony Blogger, Ava Holly....



So let's go to the event in Atlantic City, NJ a couple of weeks ago.... part one, introduced us to another year of Game A Con... part 2 takes us on the journey at the event inside Ocean Resort Casino....




Start by walking in and registering for the Game A Con experience. I had a chance to talk with founders Ari and Ben and got a real clear vision of what they see for Game A Con in the future. I'm so excited to be on this journey following them and learning about all the cool things coming up in the Gaming World.



Once you get on the floor, there are  booths set up for your adventures. From Racing cars to jumping off cliffs in virtual games, to collectibles, traditional board games and Cos Play. The whole staging area , up a few stairs, wa set up for competition play with live stream and live interviews going on. Amazing !!!!

Here are some of the people/ exhibits, and parts of the Gaming World I fell in love with while there....

1st, meet Terence....Artist both digital and media art . (Another great Terrence in the Art World)
