HurriCon 2025
June 14, 2025
Bethany Congregational Church
East Rockaway, NY
Comic Convention
Hurricane Sandy hit my hometown of East Rockaway, Long Island, New York hard. Homes were flooded, trees were uprooted, boats were thrown up on the mainland, and many residents were forced from their homes and lost everything. The relief center after Hurricane Sandy was located at the Bethany Congregational Church of East Rockaway gym for months. Neighbors affected by Hurricane Sandy came in and walked out with whatever they needed to get on with their lives. Hundreds of people came to the Bethany Church during the following months and the gym floor took a beating and had to be refurbished. The gym floor has been redone and looks great now, but we still had to pay for it and that is how HurriCon, a comic art convention, was born!
What will you find at HurriCon 2025? Comic books of course, but also comic book writers and artists, toys, food, raffles for unique items, collectibles, cosplay, fellowship, and much more.
ALL profits from HurriCon; tables fees, admission fees, food sales, and raffle sales go back to the church to continue its mission in the community.
