Sangawa Project 2017: Pittsburgh's Retro Anime for Adults

November 20, 2017: FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PITTSBURGH, PA. – Sangawa Project, Pittsburgh's and the region's premiere Japanese Pop Culture Event for adults, now in its seventh year, will be returning to the Double Tree Hotel and Conference Center in Green Tree, PA. This year's convention will be held the weekend of December 8 - 10, 2017

Sangawa Project is a one-of-a kind, 18 and older convention, in which fans can gather together to discuss their favorite anime, both new and old, challenge themselves in our retro gaming room, show off their best cosplay, attend interactive panels, engage in old-school karaoke, and just relax in a more mature environment.

Last year Sangawa Project obtained another record attendance, with a 20% increase in total registrations, entertaining over 450 guests from several surrounding states.

Additionally, Sangawa Project provides unique content such as the Taste of Japan which allows attendees (over the age of 21) to sample a variety of Japanese libations, including Saké, Shōchū and cultural beers as well as offering separate social events with our esteemed voice actor guests.

This December, Sangawa Project promises to again provide local and regional anime and Japanese pop culture fans with some of the best guests, panels, gaming and expanded programming.

This year we have four rooms playing everything from video games to Magic the Gathering to Mahjong.

Special guests this year include Colleen Clinkenbeard, a voice actor and director best known for roles in anime and video games. Her credits include Kid Gohan, Android 18, and Mai in Dragon Ball Z Kai, plus many additional anime series. You may also know her as an ADR Director, with credits such as Fullmetal Alchemist, My Hero Academia and many more.
