Auction: Original Chalk & Ink Poster of Rebecca as Misandry Dragon

Cross-posted with Skepchick Events.

One of our newest Teen Skepchicks, Kit “Grimalkin” Partin, is apparently a brilliant artist. He donated a hilarious original chalk and ink poster of Rebecca Watson as “a ferocious misandry dragon, burning down the city of Manville with her misandrist misandryfires” to help us raise money for science education and outreach at SkepchickCon.

The auction starts at $40 and will end next Sunday, February 2, at 9:00 pm Eastern time. Click here to bid anytime this week.

For those of you new to the purpose of these auctions and/or SkepchickCon, here’s the rundown:

SkepchickCon is the science and skepticism track at CONvergence, a sci-fi/fantasy conference held in the Minneapolis area every July 4th weekend (this year’s dates are July 3-7). For SkepchickCon 2014, not only will we have the usual panels and workshops, we’ll also be hosting all-day science and art activities and salons in our track room. Plus, we’ll have Roving Science, science experiments we can do throughout the con, such as with people waiting in lines.

But we need your help. We do not get a cut of the con ticket sales, so all expenses are completely covered by Skepchick. We do not profit at all from this con. If you can spare even five bucks, you can donate directly through Paypal to [email protected] (skepchick [at] skepchick.org).

Can’t afford to donate but still want to help out? Contact me at [email protected] (skepchickevents [at] gmail.com) for information on volunteer opportunities (from things you can do from the comfort of your own home to helping out at the con itself).

We also accept donations for future auctions. Have a quirky item you’re willing to part with that the Skepchick audience might like? Will to create or donate a handmade item? Have ideas for auctions you’d like to see? Let me know in the comments or by email.

Thanks so much for your support!

  1. So you’re a dragon and a warg? A Targ warg? Or a warg Targ?

    The MRA in the foreground is missing the obligatory neckbeard, though.
