Exploring Five Points Festival @ Pier 36: Part 4 (5/20/2017)

Hello again my fine-feathered convention geek friends. Welcome back to my in-depth wanderings of the Five Points Festival. We’re now up to the fourth and final chapter in this presentation and in this one I will be finishing up with the photographs that I shot over the course of the Saturday session of the event. I’m going to start this chapter with some more of the wonderful Designer Toys that we walked past.

Exploring Five Points Festival @ Pier 36: Part 2 (5/20/2017)

Welcome back my friends, you have safely arrived at the second chapter of my Five Points Festival coverage. The event happened just this past weekend at Pier 36 down on the Lower East Side.  I’ll be chiming in every now and again as I see fit and let’s begin with this awesome drawing of the late great David Bowie.

Exploring Five Points Festival @ Pier 36: Part 1 (5/20/2017)

Okay my friends, we are now going to present you with the fun-filled visual findings from the first-ever “Five Points Festival”.  The convention was taking place on Pier 36 down on the Lower East Side and it would be the first time that I ever went down this way for an event.  It was pretty  easy to get to by mass transit and then would be a few minutes walk.  Check out one of the promo pieces of art to warm up to what is coming in these photos.   As you can see the premise was Designer Toys, Comics, Street Art, Beer and an overall NYC vibe.  This is going to be interesting for sure.  Here we go.

There is plenty of wonderful Cosplay coming up in this chapter and the ones to follow so how about we get underway. I’ll start off with one of the many artist tables that I saw.
