Norwescon’s primary purpose is to promote science fiction, fantasy, and science through the written word, art, and educational programming. This promotion occurs through the holding of a yearly convention, open to the public, with the opportunity to hear noted writers, scientists, and educators speak on various aspects of the fields of science fiction, fantasy, and science. The yearly convention also provides participants the opportunity to engage in panel discussions, attend lectures, peruse an art exhibit, and peruse displays relating to science fiction, fantasy, and science.
