Dining together on Saturday has been a long-standing tradition at summer pulp cons. It gives everyone the chance to break bread together, while batting the bull about pulps, books, collecting, and more. This year, PulpFest will be dining informally at ember & vine, located right off the lobby of the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Pittsburgh — Cranberry. It’s the perfect place to gather, grab a bite, and relax.
Last year’s dinner buffet at the DoubleTree was a real hit. PulpFest chairman Jack Cullers will be consulting with the hotel staff to come up with this year’s menu, available at a reasonable price. Further details will be made available at the convention.
Although this is a strictly informal gathering, seating is limited. So be sure to sign up early to assure a seat at the table. Just let us know by 1 PM on Saturday, August 17, that you’ll be coming. We look forward to gathering and talking about our wonderful shared interests — the pulps, books, and popular fiction and art!
(On Saturday evening, August 17, from 5 to 6:30 PM, join your friends — old and new — at ember & vine in the heart of the DoubleTree Cranberry. It’s an opportunity to socialize after a hearty day of collecting in the PulpFest dealers’ room, prior to taking in the convention’s exceptional evening programming. Unlike this sheriff — painted by Carl Bertsch for the May 30, 1925 WESTERN STORY MAGAZINE— you should have no problem getting coffee at the DoubleTree.)
