Welcome to the third year of bringing people together from around the world and sharing the amazing creativity of our steampunk community – Welcome to Steampunk Hands Around the World 2016!
This year’s theme is “My Favorite Things”. Between February 1st and 29th, more than fifty steampunk creators will share examples of people, events, and items that they love. and hopefully, everyone will have at least one new thing to add to their own expression of steampunk.
Your 2016 hosts come from:
Argentina, Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Czech Republic, Ecuador, England, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Scotland, Spain, Uruguay, and USA.
