[YEG] Edmonton Comic Expo

For our first time going to a Comicbook Convention we can comfortably say that it was a pretty enjoyable experience. There were a lot of amazing cosplays, art and panels. it remind us of Animethon but at a larger scale. We also attended the Pokemon training panel and are already on the road to become Pokemon 

Masters! Haha

Check out some of the pictures taken below!

Expected nothing less from Dante... haha

[YEG] CSSA's China National Day Celebration Gala

We'd first like to say that it was honour to work with with soo many talented and beautiful people at Myer Horowitz Theater. Special Thanks to CSSA for inviting Convergence to perform!

Such a awesome desgin for the venue's program pamphlet. We're totally feeling the falling leaves effect.

[YEG] Multicultural Opening for Karen Leibovici's Office

It was a exciting day for Karen Leibovici's campaign on Tuesday September 3rd. It was a difficult journey with the traffic caused by the amazing Tour of Alberta race but we can assure you it was worth the hour or more drive.

"Guests at the office opening reflected the diverse backgrounds that make up what Edmonton is today. It was an energetic event involving an Aboriginal Elder blessing, Chinese lion dancers, African drummers, and a Korean K-Pop dance group."

The Lion Dancers were incredible, showing a combination of power and grace as shown in a video below.



We'd like to thank the Edmonton Korean Canadian Association for inviting the Convergence dance crew to perform Psy's the ever so popular Gangnam Style once again. No videos are available at this time but there were a few people from the audience that remembered the team dancing at Heritage Days earlier this year.

“@lanacuthbertson: Gangnam style at @karenleibovici 's campaign office opening. Amazing. #yeg #yegvote pic.twitter.com/6b6pRJ7EgY” thank you!

[YEG] Chinatown Night Market Review

A fun night with a crowd full of energy and love for the Chinese Culture!

Rain or Shine the show must go on! Apparently it rained earlier that day but thankfully it cleared up later in the day :) It was nice to see so many people taking part in this event with so many familiar faces. Our favourite tent would have to be the GAMA Drink panel with cool healthy drinks that really quench your thirst. If you had spare energy they had stationary bikes powering the tech. equipment powered by the heart volunteers and anyone else who wanted to give them a spin. The fashionistas definitely could appreciate the fine Chinese clothing presented in display and worn by beautiful young ladies. If you stuck around you could also hear some Korean Pop playing in the background and maybe have witnessed some Mother Father Gentleman ;)

The following are pictures of the event including a special guest performance by Convergence Dance Crew!

Another successful year for Animethon. Though some people's knowledge on Anime is limited to the most popular of ones, the amount of passion and enthusiasm of everyone who participated really shined this year!
