What's Next?
Where is HCTM Designs going from here? Great Question! One of my best qualities is that I am a dreamer. Another quality is that I do my best to pursue my dreams. So on this page I will share with you some of my dreams and goals for the coming years.
More Cons!
I am looking into Cosplay Conventions for 2023. I want to have a presence at more Cons. Some of the Conventions I'm looking into for next year are AnnaMinne, EVO, and Twin Cities Con again if this year goes well. If you'd like to see me at other cons feel free to send a message with the name and location and I'll see what I can do.
Ren Faire!
With the addtion of my Leather Masquerade Masks, and future plans for decorative sashes for medieval gowns, I am looking into Rennaisance Festivals. I miss the deadline for 2022. But I will be applying to at least two Ren Faires in 2023. I'll be applying to Sleepy Hollow in Des Moines, Iowa, as well as the Minnesota Ren Faire here in the Cities.
Erotic Festivals
As always I will be returning to Western New York for the Rochester Erotic Arts Festival. I am watching for the dates. I have 7 Rope Models that are interested in walking for me in the Rope Fashion Show, and I will be creating art for the art show over the winter. In addition to R.E.A.F. I will also be looking into Naughty Revival here in the Twin Cities, and am considering looking into Rubberball.
In the next ten years I plan on building a warehouse to house my business and it's many interests and activities. This Space will be for business purposes, as well as recreational activies of the workers. There will be an Art Room, a Music Room, a Gymnasium, and a Dining Area. There will also be a play-room for days when employees might have to bring their children with them to work. There will be a room for the Laser engraver, and 3D Printers. There will be a place for the Sewing Machine. There will be a clean room for resin and silicone. There Will be an area for painting Jewelry Displays, Masks and other crafts. Each section of the business will have a space for its creative process. I hope to add at least 4 people to my team, and establish a creative, and nurturing environment for everyone involved.
Future Events at the Dungeon
After the Dungeon has been established I will host Live Art Gallery Nights, Monthly Dungeon Parties, and bi-annual Rope Fashion Shows. The Space will be available to be rented by private individuals or groups, and will hold classes in varioius topics on a weekly basis.
In the next five years I fully plan on establishing a Dungeon Event Space within an hour of the twin citites. Some of the Ameneties offered will be a human-size cat tree, an Erotic Art Gallery, and a Rope Reading Lounge. At present it is a dream, and no concrete plans have been set into motion. However, it is a dream that has trancended 7 years of fluctuating interests, and therefore will likely be brought to fruition as soon as I am able to pull the funds together.
