General
Thanks to everyone who sent kind thoughts and fond memories of past MW*Cs this Memorial Day Weekend! 🖖
We would like to add virtual Art Show and virtual Dealers Room pages to the MW*C website if there is enough interest. We hope to have something up for Memorial Day weekend.
We hope this will aid the many artists and dealers who are struggling due to Covid-19 shutting down conventions and other fannish outlets.
These would, of course, be featuring SF/Media fan artists and fan dealers/fanzine publishers/creators.
The virtual Art Show would have a link (or other contact info) to artists websites, artists/studio name, a short artist bio, and perhaps a thumbnail of a representative work.
The virtual Dealers Room would have a link (or other contact info) to dealers website, dealers/press name, and a short description of wares, feature new products, etc..
The webpages would be ongoing, so can be updated periodically.
There is no charge for listings.
The remainder of the MW*C website will continue to be archival.To supply artist or dealer info for listing, or for more info, please e-mail mediawestcon@aol.com.
We also still have DIY MW*C 40 kits available. See MW*C website (www.mediawestcon.org) for details. 🖖

From Michael Short:
I have sad news.
My lovely wife Robin Wood lost her battle with cancer this morning just after 3AM. There will be no in person visitation or memorial. At Robin’s request there will be a Zoom meeting (or two or three).
Thank you all for your friendship and support over the last couple years.
— Mike
From Joyce Dudley Hindman:
Bast’s family and I have come to the decision that it is time to say goodbye to Requiem. April 30, 2021, will be the last day for orders of ‘zines or e-zines through the website.
Please post this info to fannish sites that welcome ‘zines.
More information about ‘zines from other publishers for whom Requiem acted as agent will be made available as soon as we have it.
It’s been a long run. We’ve met amazing people, many of whom have become lifelong friends. Thank you for everything.
Questions can go to me at ReqPub@gmail.com
We are sorry to report that long-time MW*C attendee Vicki Bone passed away on Tuesday, Aug. 26, 2020.
