Today’s the perfect day to crack open a new adventure. 📚 Happy #NationalAuthorsDay to the creators whose words move worlds. What’s your all-time favorite book—or the one you just can’t put down right now?

#FANEXPOCleveland #Cleveland #CLE #ThisIsCLE #BookTok #Bookish

A group of attendees, including kids and adults—some in cosplay—gather around a round table covered in colorful supplies like markers, string, and activity cards. Behind them, shelves filled with manga and a “Manga Library” sign are visible.

A young girl and an adult browse a table full of books under a sign that reads “FAN EXPO Cleveland – Welcome to our Little Library.” The selection includes a variety of paperbacks for all ages and genres.

A circle of seated attendees engage in a book club-style discussion. Some are holding notebooks or sketchpads, and one guest wears a red velvet gown with gold jewelry, suggesting cosplay. Shelves and signs from the Book Nook line the walls behind them.

A large black bookshelf holds neatly organized rows of manga, featuring popular series like One Piece, My Hero Academia, and Attack on Titan. A small sign in front reads “FAN EXPO Cleveland Manga Library – Please return books!”

Happy #InternationalAnimationDay. From hand-drawn classics to CG spectacles, animation continues to inspire, entertain, and evolve. Today we’re celebrating the artists, animators, and voice actors who bring our favorite worlds to life.

What voice actors do you hope to see at #FANEXPOCleveland 2026?

Voice actor George Newbern poses for a photo with a fan at his autograph table. George holds a Superman action figure, standing in front of a red and black booth banner featuring animated Superman artwork. A fan with purple and pink hair takes their photo, while another fan gets an autograph in the background.

Three attendees pose on the Cosplay Red Carpet dressed as characters from Inside Out. An adult cosplaying Sadness wears a cream sweater, blue leggings, blue wig, and round glasses, while the adult next to them, cosplaying Anger, wears a red wig, gray hoodie, and purple pants. In front, a young child beams while dressed as Disgust, in a green dress with lime sneakers and green-streaked hair.

Voice actor Blake Roman sits on stage at FAN EXPO Cleveland laughing into a microphone during a Hazbin Hotel panel. He wears a black “Princess of Feral Cats” graphic tee, relaxed jeans, and white sneakers, with a FAN EXPO mic in hand and branding behind him.
