AnarCon takes place at Camp 6 at The Cove Campground in Gore, Virginia. The Cove is a privately owned, certified tree farm and features 3,000 acres of mountain, water, and forests for recreation. It boasts a lake and beach, bathrooms, rental cabins, target range, and trails for motorcycles, ATVs, hiking, and bicycling.
Anyone is welcome to set up a booth or table and bring your wares. There are no vendor fees! If you're interested in participating, please email us information regarding your business or wares so we can add you to the vendor list.
Have something to say? We'll get you the mic! If you're an artist and would like to share your talents, we'd love to hear from you. Whether you spin fire, play music, dance, or perform spoken word, please email us so we can add you to our program.
If you'd like to put together a workshop, teach a class, or share a skill, we'd love to provide space and time for you to present. Please email us with information regarding your presentation.
The honey badger is our mascot, and rightfully so! Every year we come together build a massive bon fire in the shape of our honey badger. Building the badger is a group process and anyone can pitch in. Look for Burn Captain, Michael, for instructions on where to start building and how to safely contribute. Bring something to burn or come ready to help build.
We are welcoming to anyone who values the Non-Aggression Principle, property rights, and working towards personal discovery.
We encourage personal growth through learning and honing new skills.
Be a part of a growing tribe who value autonomy and cooperation.
Remember when we said to bring your guns? We weren't kidding! On Saturday we roll out as a group to practice the art of self-defense. Arms Master Kurt will meet with everyone beforehand to provide a firearms safety course, shooting tips, and lessons to newbies. So if you've never fired a gun before this is the perfect place and opportunity with friends to learn how.
Armed to the teeth with knowledge of gunsmithing, Kurt is also the person to go to if you're interested in building your own gun. If you'd like to connect with him to get your gun built before anarcon, or even just to get advice on your planned build, please email us! If you're ready to roll, be sure to bring lots of ammunition, ear protection, water, and sunscreen!
This is AnarCon’s tentative schedule. It will continue to fill out leading up to the event, so check back often!
Speakers will be added here as the event draws near.
