Anime Fargo is dedicated to making sure that all attendees are able to fully enjoy everything our convention offers. We are taking steps to make sure that disabled people are included when we say everyone. If you have any questions about our policies or have any needs that are not met here, please contact us at accessibility@animefargo.org.
We welcome all guests as volunteers, if they are interested. We have several options for you to help out at the convention, and would be thrilled to have you be a part of the team.
