The Sangawa Project, presented by the Pittsburgh Japanese Culture Society, is an 18+ 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 awesome panels and just relax in a more mature environment. Additionally, Sangawa 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!
Located in downtown Pittsburgh at the beautiful Drury Plaza Hotel, on November 30th to December 2, 2018.
