Update: The MeshHouse cancelled all vendor reservations last minute with no explanation. We opted for a refund instead of vending outside. The rest of the event will still happen, just not in that space. 

Get ready for the Kent Nerd Party, where downtown Kent transforms into the ultimate haven for nerds!

The Nerd Party is a street-wide event with a cosplay contest, Lego museum, indoor and outdoor vendors, and more. Small businesses on 1st Ave S and Meeker St will host local makers, artists, authors, and exhibits.

All nerds are welcome—whether you love anime, science fiction, fantasy, horror, or another geeky pursuit.

The event is all over downtown Kent, but DefCon One Publishing will have a table at The MesHHouse, 207 1st Avenue South.
