New England Science Fiction Association

Programs: Boskone is a new england regional sf&f convention that draws roughly 1000 attendees each year. It includes a multi-track program of panels, readings, video showings, and music performances all with science fiction or fantasy relevance. Other major components include a high quality art show, a dealers room, and a gaming area where card, board, and role-playing games are demonstrated and played with fantasy and science fiction themes (these do not involve gambling). Boskone 51 was held february 14-16, 2014.

negc1 was held september 22, 2014 at george dilboy vfw hall in somerville, ma. This was nesfa's first attempt at a games event. It featured game authors with the current versions of their games as well as a schedule of tournaments and open gaming. As a first attempt with publicity and timing issues it was rated as worth further development. About 50 people attended.
