ABOUT
Heroes, Villains, and Blerds is a SCARBO art event that falls somewhere between a market and a convention. It is meant to be a gathering of black nerds and artists from all fandoms. HV&B is aimed to be an event that creates space and representation for black fans and artists and other POC in the nerd community. HV&B's origin story has just gotten underway, but we hope to continue this event in the future. Today, we start small, but tomorrow gives us so much room to grow.
