Each year, cardists from around the globe come together on the last day of Cardistry-Con to celebrate and honor the major achievements in cardistry each year. The Awards Ceremony bestows accolades in five fields: Deck of the Year, Move of the Year, Video of the Year, Breakout Cardist of the Year, and Cardistry-Con Champion.
Last week, the organizers put out an open call for nominations in the first four categories. Below are this year’s official nominees, based on followers votes.
Congratulations to all nominees! The House of Cardistry members will be voting on the first four categories, and the results of those and the CCC will be announced live at Cardistry-Con on Sunday, September 23rd.
