Get ready for an infusion of Asian culture and Japanese-style animation: AnimeCon returns to the Main Library on August 1! Teens ages 12-19 are invited to register for this free, day-long celebration. This year’s event will feature a mix of old favorites and new additions, including:

· A performance by the Cardinal K-Pop Dance Team
· Crescent Moon Dancers performing traditional dances from Uzbekistan
· Annual Ramen Noodle Eating contest
· Yu-Gi-Oh Tournament
· Zen Garden

AnimeCon is part of the Louisville Free Public Library's annual Teen Summer Reading Program, encouraging teens to read for fun during the summer. Summer Reading and AnimeCon are made possible through funding from The Library Foundation.
