The Story Behind New Anthrodam

Our Story

They say New York City has everything: museums, art galleries, Broadway theaters, world-famous tourist attractions, prestigious universities and hospitals, not to mention the greatest bagels to be found on planet Earth.

Everything—except its own furry convention. While furcons have sprung up across the US and literally around the world, in small and big cities alike, New York City’s resident furries—and there are more of us than most people realize—have spent the past few years building a vibrant local scene through the hard work of independent meetup and gathering organizers.

We deeply respect the work local groups have already done to bring people together. Now, with New Anthrodam, we’re carrying that community momentum forward with the city’s first furry convention. People from around the world visit New York to enjoy our unique vibrant culture—and now furries will too! With flights from all over the world arriving at our three major airports, it’s a guarantee New Anthrodam will be an international experience for all.

Some of the furry community’s most experienced convention organizers are bringing New Anthrodam to life, because a world-class city like New York deserves a world-class furry convention!
