Mini-Con

Portsmouth Public Library Minicon

Dear Portsmouth Public Library Mini-Con Fans,

Due to concerns surrounding the COVID-19, Portsmouth Public Library has decided to cancel 2020’s Mini-Con. While we are disappointed at the prospect, the health and safety of individuals is foremost in our minds. Mini-Con draws a crowd of well over 1,000 people in our community and surrounding areas, and we do not wish to expose individuals to the damaging virus. All vendor/exhibitor fees will be refunded and we will continue Mini-Con in 2021. Portsmouth Public Library wishes you good health and encourages social distancing for your safety!
