Mo*Con

Mo*Con 2024 is almost upon us and we’re digging deep into our blerd bag this year!

Look at these legends we’re honored to call friends:
John Jennings, Sheree Renee Thomas, Dr. Chesya Burke, and Saladin Ahmed

Look at these special guests blessing us with their presence:
Danian Darrell Jerry, Scott Andrews, Bridget Smith
(Full bios on the website)

We’ll feature some special local artists and have some surprises for you along the way. We’re keeping Mo*Con free (but capping attendance at 100 people. And we’re still looking for sponsors!) so register at the Event Brite link (also in comments).

Join us as we continue to work toward the future we want to see: a diverse, inclusive community where all folks are welcomed. (And special thanks to Bob Freeman for this awesome flyer!)

Save the Date!

Mo*Con 2024 is May 2nd - 5th.

More details and surprises will pop up here throughout the next few months, so bookmark this page and keep an eye on my socials.

****Travel Notice for Saturday****

The Indianapolis Mini Marathon and 5k will be taking place Saturday May 4th, right around the corner from the AMP. Because the race is meant to wrap up no later than noon, you will need to take 16th street and avoid 10th street. 

Here are the recommended directions coming from Candelwood Suites: https://maps.app.goo.gl/s9BQDqS7x4TxiVTPA
