Great! I'm really looking forward to it! I attending the SW: Magic of Myth event at the Minneapolis Institute of Arts a few years back and had a great time.

Yep, we'll be there all weekend, and every Saturday for the run of the show...except 4th of July weekend, cause we'll be busy with CONvergence.

What has everyone thought of the exhibit? I went yesterday and I thought it was great! While I loved Magic of Myth which i saw at MIA and the Smithsonian, it was really cool seeing the connections between the films and actual technological developments. What do you all think?
