Anime NYC is an annual convention where Anime fans meet and celebrate their passion and love for Anime. During this convention, fans are usually cosplaying (dressed up) as their favorite characters while they listen in on panels, meet voice actors, creators, and directors, and look at new, never before seen merchandise.
My students have been wanting to go to Anime NYC but have not had the financial resources to attend, given the amount of poverty they face; it is their dream to walk amongst cosplayers, learn about creative artistry and find out how they can create their own Mangas (anime books), as well as nurture their own creativity. Anime Club members also wish to create their own cosplays if they are able to attend. Upon completion of the trip, students will hold a mini convention for middle school students where they will share all that they have learned about the job opportunities available in the anime field - voice over, anime news writer, content writer, storyboard artist, editor, etc.
