WHAT'S COOL ABOUT THIS OPPORTUNITY:
Emerald City Comic Con is the premier comic book and pop culture convention in the Pacific Northwest. Built out of a love for art and comic culture, ECCC prides itself on being the creator's con: a destination for both artists and fans alike. The ECCC Content Coordinator is responsible for helping create and execute of all of the incredible content that will come to life at Emerald City Comic Con! This includes all panels, screenings, autograph signings, and special events that take place during the event.
