Designer Con (LA TACO coverage) is Southern California’s most lively and colorful annual art and design convention, which smashes together collectible toys and designer goods with urban, underground and pop art. Designer Con takes place in a 70,000 sq. ft. space, and features over 300 vendors, art & custom shows, live demonstrations, panel discussions, and more. The show coordinators, Ayleen Gaspar & Ben Goretsky strive to provide a fun, safe, comfortable environment for fans, artists, and vendors to meet.
