FerryCon 2025

FerryCon 2025

Saturday, September 20

11:00 am - 4:00 pm

FerryCon is the library’s all day, yearly Comic Con-style flagship event for all ages that takes place one Saturday every fall (formerly spring). Since 2019, FerryCon has brought over 300 participants to the library for fun-filled events including artists alley, classes, panels, and contests that revolved around comic books, graphic novels, super heroes, and more! 

This event is free but will include a suggested donation of $10 per family at the door. We’re fundraising for the library this year!
