Chronicles of CONduit    

CONduit XVIII — May 23-25, 2008


Downtown Radisson Hotel, Salt Lake City, Utah

Masquerade

This year's Masquerade is planned and run by members of the Utah Costumers Guild, and is open to anyone wishing to enter. Competition levels are Rising Star (12 years and less), Novice, Journeyman, and Master Costumer. We also have an Open Presentation category for those who wish only to show off their costuming skills. Masquerade Registration forms are available at the main Registration desk and at the Mandatory Meeting. All registration forms must be turned in by 5:00 pm on Saturday May 24 to participate in the masquerade. Check out the Masquerade Rules page for more detailed information.

Awards

Founders Award

The Costumers Guild is extending the invitation to all to nominate the next recipient of the Utah Costumers Guild Founders Award. This award is to recognize people for outstanding efforts in creating and/ or promoting costume development in the Utah area. Nominations may be sent to Charles Galway at cgalway@xmission.com before May 20th.

Fan T-shirt Contest

During half-time at the Masquerade, we will present a contest for the oldest convention T-Shirt! You don't need to be IN the T-Shirt, nor does the T-Shirt have to be from CONduit. So, raid the deep, dark recesses of your closet and display those shirts!

Iron Costumer

The hit contest/workshop Iron Costumer will be making another appearance at CONduit. If you'd like to participate, check the program list! You can bring your own team of 2-4 people, or just come, and we'll find a team for you. The Utah Costuming Guild will be providing materials, but you're welcome to bring your own as well. If you own a sewing machine and are willing to bring it, please do so. We'd like to have one per team.

Iron Costumer awards will be given at Masquerade halftime, so if you compete in Iron Costumer, please make sure the person to whom you fit the costume WEARS THE COSTUME TO THE MASQUERADE, or is able to change really quickly while the Hall Costume Contest Awards are being given.

What will this year's secret ingredient be? There's only one way to find out! See you there!

How to Volunteer

The Masquerade is looking for volunteers, and we'd also love to collect some great ideas for next year's halftime entertainment. If you'd like to see what happens backstage (and help make it happen!), or if you have ideas to submit, please contact Charles Galway at cgalway@xmission.com, and put "CONduit Masquerade" in the subject line.
Or you can use the Contact Us form on this web site.
