The GeekGirlCon Staff

GeekGirlCon is growing like crazy, and we’d love for you to join us! We’re a 100% volunteer team (sorry, no one gets paid) with a dedicated love for putting on events and celebrations of geeky women. We’re a diverse group from tech geeks and wordsmiths to Doctor Who fans and those who play too much Zelda on the weekends.

Being on GeekGirlCon staff requires 5-15 hours a week of dedication, biweekly staff meeting (in the evenings), events going, and of course, attendance at our annual convention. You also must live in the Seattle-area.

On Sunday – this was a cute arts and crafts panel hosted by Tammy Vince Cruz and Rachelle Abellar from the Geek Girl Con’s design team. Not only were these two ladies busy churning out all the design collateral for the convention; they also organized a successful, interactive panel that encouraged attendees to drop by and make sock puppets.

But not just any sock puppets. Sock puppets inspired by Jim Henson’s Labyrinth.
