INTERVENTION 6 - DOCTOR WHO JOINS FORCES WITH INTERVENTION FESTIVAL

For their sixth year, Intervention, a visionary combination of educational conference, art festival, and gaming convention, returns to Rockville, Maryland, from August the 14th to the 16th, 2015. And it's goal, is to Intervene and Inspire the whole family to take advantage of what they can do with art and technology. Many guest speakers will attend, display their work, and teach you how you can do what they do.

Terry Molloy (Doctor Who's Davros) will be teaching voice acting classes, Oni Hartstein (marketer, writer, event organizer) will be teaching DIY Marketing for small businesses, Kara Dennison (anime editor, social media manager) will be teaching how to get into the anime industry, and cartoonists Pete Abrams and Joe Wos will be teaching about both the digital and print comics industry. Many more guest speakers are being added each week.

The event's co-founder, Oni Hartstein, said, “co-founder, James Harknell, and I wanted to put together an event that would empower people to take control of their lives by going DIY with the internet and to showcase those who have done so already. We feel that the internet is the present and the future. This is the event for the internet generation”. After successful runs in 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, and 2014, this year will mark Hartstein's sixth time organizing the event.

The convention features educational content, children's programming, board gaming, video gaming, an extensive art festival, live action roleplaying, musical performances, and plenty of giveaways. There will not be a charity auction this year, but the convention will be sending a donation to the Electronic Frontier Foundation, an international non-profit digital advocacy group that helps to defend civil liberties in the digital space.
