Emerald Coast Con began in 2015 as a brand new fundraising initiative at Emerald Coast Convention Center dedicated, but not limited, to retro, current-gen, next-gen and indie gaming and computer science. This convention is not only for gamers and tekkies, but will also include a broad assortment of pop-culture exhibits and fanfare for lovers of comics, sci-fi, fantasy, anime, and multi-genre entertainment throughout the Southeast. This event is produced by and benefits The Arc of the Emerald Coast, an affiliate of the Arc national, and serves over 500 men, women and children in the area with developmental and developmental disabilities such as Down Syndrome, Cerebral Palsy and Autism. Emerald Coast Con is an effort to capture appreciation for gaming and media arts entertainment, advocate computer-science education and literacy, and build awareness and recognition for those with cognitive and developmental disabilities.
