Anthro SoCal 2026 was my very first furry convention, and what an unforgettable milestone it was! I wasn't sure if con life was for me at first, but attending Anthro SoCal truly cemented that this creative community feels like home.
It was a real "Race Game" of a weekend — exploring the dealer's den, handing out homemade carrot cookies, playing games, and bonding with so many wonderful new friends (and landing in more group chats than I can count!). A huge thank you to everyone who made Zap's first con so welcoming and memorable.
When not at conventions, you can frequently find me at local Southern California meets enjoying the sunny outdoors, park picnics, and vintage collectible hunting:
A classic bimonthly park meet with plenty of shady trees, lawn games, potluck food, and chill vibes.
Monthly gathering to hunt for retro toys, anime collectibles, and comic goods together followed by lunch.
Relaxed weekend park meetups in the heart of Orange County with open greenery, lakes, and sunny community hangouts.
Feel free to come say hi, grab a fresh cookie, chat about vintage gameshows, or trade stickers anytime you see me around! ⚡
