Me and @gartiry are so much looking forward to the next @lightboxexpo ! 🙌

Last year, we had to cancel last minute due to personal circumstances (family health stuff), and I can honestly say that I never experienced so much FOMO... 😅

I’m really looking forward to connect with all of our amazing Discord community members in real life (meeting some of them for the first time ever! 🤯), reconnect with a lot of longstanding online friends alike and ofc meet all the many other lovely and hyper-talented artists attending! 💖

This year, I’m especially looking forward to meet up with our amazing moderators, study group leaders, Paint-a-Thon contestants, and everyone who’s been participating in our 🛋️ ‘It’s Friday Again’ discussions, 📖 ‘Off The Page’ & 🎬 ‘Off The Screen’ art challenges, and 🔥 ‘Trial By Fire’ writing group. 💪 And ofc my buddies from my 🔪 ‘Among Us’ & 🚹 ‘Meccha Chameleon’ lobbies on the server!

If you want to meet me and possibly get your hands on one an exclusive LBX26 keychain or a Dutch ‘stroopwafel’ (if you’re quick enough), make sure to keep your eyes open around the expo, message me on Discord (I’ll do my best to check my messages throughout the day), or come to one of our Community Meetups! 🤗

Want to connect with fellow attendees ahead of the expo? We’ll be hosting a 🧺 Community Picnic on Thursday (the day before expo) and ☕ meetups at Starbucks every morning before show hours (Friday, Saturday and Sunday). Come to the LightBox Expo Discord server for more information on those. Hope to see you there!

And a BIG THANKS 🙏 already to everyone of you who helps make this expo an awesome experience every year! 🎉

Thanks for this lovely gift @kethrinbytheway ! ❤️ When @gartiry said “I’d love to have one of those one day!” while we were reviewing your team’s submission during the @lightboxexpo Paint-a-Thon Winner Reveal Stream, we didn’t expect we would become proud ‘pet owners’ so soon… 😅🤣🤣🤣 by @neldoran
