Cosplay is a creative/performative hobby where members of the community make and wear costumes designed for cartoons and comics (often Japanese, but not exclusively), movies, and television shows, either for the technical aspects of creating an entire costume from nothing but two dimensional images, or to engage in skits or other in-character performance.
As a fairly new and small subculture (there are estimated fewer than a thousand cosplayers nationwide) the community is open, supportive of new and existing members, and relatively close-knit for such a diverse group of people.
SPCC aims to promote cosplay in New Zealand by organising events that are safe, creatively stimulating and fun.

This was a low-key costume optional evening of games, socialising and yummy nibbles. Also the grand unveiling of the 2010 fundraiser calender!
Thanks Josh for the photos! And a big thank you to all that attended - you rock!
