HCCPL Operations Director Tiffany Luna says, “We get a lot of questions about what is Hoptown Fanfest. It is our version of a pop culture convention where comic fans, creators and experts congregate to attend panels, participate in discussions and meet other attendees that are interested in some aspect of pop culture.”

Vendor applications for Hoptown Fanfest are also being accepted through September 10. For more information, contact the library at 270-887-4262.
