Culpeper Con is Culpeper County Library’s premier annual Graphic Novel and Comic Book convention, hosted by the Friends of the Culpeper County Library.
Our goal is to promote the library as a fun and inclusive space for everyone by celebrating pop culture and fandoms from graphic novels, comic books, manga, science fiction, and other formats.
By way of graphic novels and comics, the new library superheroes, Captains Culpeper, introduce new superheroes from across non-profit organizations including Encompass Community Supports, NAACP Culpeper, Aging Together, and the evil villain Cen-Sor.
