​

Hi! We are Aspen and Max, two passionate con vendors. We founded C3 based on a simple dream: to create a permanent space where artists, collectors, and entrepreneurs can connect, create, and sell all year long.

​

After years of hauling tables, hunting for booth spots, and learning everything the hard way, we knew there had to be a better way to support small businesses and con vendors. So we built it.

 

Now open at the Auburn Outlet Collection (between Burlington and Miniso), C3 is the first-of-its-kind hub for fandom, creativity, and commerce. Whether you’re a creator looking for a shelf to sell from or a collector browsing for your next treasure, there’s a space here for you.

 

At C3, we believe that conventions are about more than just shopping—they’re about building something together. Our space is designed for:​​

 

• Hands-on Creation – Design and refine your products with access to professional tools. You'll have access to 3D printers, embroidery machines, sticker cutters, heat presses, and more to craft products, signage, and displays for your next convention—at a fraction of the cost.

• Use our painting, crafting, and content creation studio to make products, take professional product photos, film, edit, and produce social media and website content.

• Business & Skill Development – Learn from experts through workshops on marketing, branding, product photography, and small-business essentials.

• Collaborative Community – Join watch parties, gaming tournaments, and meetups with like-minded fans.

• Network with fellow artists, cosplayers, and vendors to share knowledge and resources.

• Inclusive & Accessible Opportunities – We support creators who can’t sell in person by showcasing and selling their work, ensuring everyone has a place in the convention scene.

• Live Demonstrations & Open Collaboration – Visitors are invited to watch, learn, and participate as vendors and creators bring their ideas to life.

• Attend workshops and panels to develop business strategies and skills.

• We support charities and community drives.

• We are a place for people to learn about upcoming conventions and events.
