The Steampunk Symposium 2020 Program invites you to compete with a team of up to four people in a battle of costuming as part of the Steampunk Olympiad.
Moderated by Dr. Jaimie Kelley.
Teams will battle using needle and thread, hot glue, and a variety of tools to create a stunning steampunk outfit from thrift store clothing, cloth scraps, and ingenuity. The winning outfit will show both creativity and craftsmanship. Points will be awarded for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place teams.
