ANTHRO #1: Current events

   Anthro is serious about keeping our readers on top of what’s going on in furdom. That’s why we comb the web for conventions, carry Flayrah and Dutchfurs newsfeeds, and actively solicit information from you, our loyal readers. If you know of an upcoming item of interest to the furry community, let us know so Anthro can tell the world for you!


   Item: Boston artist Paul Carrick is taking part in an international exhibit of works inspired by H. P. Lovecraft. From late October 2007 through April 2008, science-fiction museum Maison d’Ailleurs (the House of Elsewhere) of Yverdon-les-Bains, Switzerland will display Lovecraftian art from around the world. See Carrick’s blog for up-to-the-minute information about the four paintings (and a statue of Cthulhu!) he’s creating for this exhibition; other contributors include H. R. (Alien) Giger, James (Dinotopia) Gurney, Dave (Sandman) McKean, among many, many others.


   Item: There’s a new furry-focused portal on the web—Yiffy.Tk, which is set up as an ideal host for websites, stories, art, IRC quotes, and so much more. Check it out and see for yourself!
