Wizard World Teams with Positive Tomorrows for Book Program

Wizard World has teamed with Positive Tomorrows an organization that helps homeless families educate their children to create pathways to success.

Wizard World is asking fans to bring child-appropriate graphic novels, comics, science fiction books, or any other similar reading materials to Wizard World Tulsa, September 6th to 8th at Renaissance Hotel & Convention Center Center and leave them in a specially marked donation receptacle near the Special Guest Registration desk.

As a thank you, fans who donate two or more items to Positive Tomorrows during Wizard World Tulsa will receive a free pre-autographed celebrity photo from a selection of previous Wizard World guests.

These photographs are available to fans on a first-come, first-served basis while supply lasts, one per family donation per day, at the full discretion of Wizard World.

The fifth Wizard World Tulsa will feature celebrities Jason Momoa (Aquaman, Justice League), Jewel Staite (“Firefly,” Serenity), Cary Elwes (The Princess Bride, “The Art of More”), Joe Flanigan (“Stargate: Atlantis,” “6 Bullets”), Lou Ferrigno (“The Incredible Hulk,” “The King of Queens”), professional wrestling legend Kevin Nash and more.

The event marks Wizard World’s sixth consecutive year in the state of Oklahoma and first at the Renaissance. The Cox Business Center in Tulsa served as the venue in 2014 through 2016 and in 2018, while the Cox Convention Center in Oklahoma City hosted the convention in 2017.

Wizard World Tulsa will also feature non-stop live entertainment hosted by Kato Kaelin, gaming, exclusive Q&A sessions with top celebrities, topical pop culture programming and more. Details to follow soon, along with programming and entertainment stage schedules.
