Which means that, yes, there will probably still be changes here and there, but generally only to resolve when we’ve accidentally placed one panelist on two panels at the same time, or if a panelist has to cancel.)
Registration: Drop-in Materials fee: $4 per duck painted (paid at the workshop) Workshop duration: Until 5pm on Friday
Workshop description: Before the Convention really gets into the swing come chill and paint some cute rubber ducks. Create the rubber duck you always wanted or a troupe of them. Create your favorite superhero, pony, wizard, abstract design or some other flavour of crazy.
Then take them home with you. Where they can be your friends forever.
Who doesn’t love a rubber ducky?
Quack!
