4th Street is...

  • a convention for people who are serious about good fantasy and good stories: reading them, writing them, appreciating them in all their various forms.
  • a weekend of high-quality, high-intensity, mind-stretching fun.
  • a single track program sized so that everyone can experience the same panels with topics ranging from the sublime to the frivolous, from The Uses of Symbolism in Fantasy to How to Sound Smart on Panels, from subtext to developing taste.
  • fascinating conversations which begin in the program room and continue into the ConSuite, corridors and beyond.
  • an opportunity to promote interest and quality in fantasy literature.

    • The conversation and the fun will be better if you are there. You know they will.

Current Announcements:

    Dear 4th Street Friends,
      We hope your Holiday Season has been a happy one. Don't forget that 4th Street 2010 membership will rise to $75 in the New Year. We'll build the conversation around the people who register. Why not give yourself a gift and be financially conservative at the same time?

      Wishing you a magical new year...

      Tom and Janet
