Here's some great scenes from the Creation Grand Slam Dessert Party: celebrity/fan interaction is what it is all about! You just can't get that at the super-huge crowded conventions where you wait on lines for everything. At Creation events, we never over-sell and everyone gets a seat in our main theatre and a fair shake when it comes to meeting celebrities. |
