Hello!

Thanks for your question!

We are currently just learning about the ‘who’s who’ and where to find the right resources in the Sherlockian world.

However, we highly recommend you check out the following links:

Sherlockian.Net:Societies

It’s a great start - there are lists and resources that should help you out!

Good luck!

Hello!

We have actually! We are currently scheduling our next BBC Sherlock screening, and have some ideas along that thought.

We’d love to have a Sherlock Convention someday - especially since we were all floored by the devotion and love of Sherlock Holmes outside of just the BBC verse, but this would have to be far off into the future. It is a wonderful idea, but the thing is - it takes months of planning, and thousands of dollars. You need to rent space, get permits, insurance, licensing if you are showing media, guests and staff. Take a moment and think about a con you go to - how soon in advance do they announce? What’s the schedule like? Take a moment and think about how many people and hours it takes.

We dream about this someday - but it would take dozens of people, months and months of time and thousands of dollars. For an example, one of our staff organizes a 1/2 day event at a hotel for her job- like at a Hilton (8 people in a room for the day and a lunch). Well, that’s roughly $1,000 in expenses. Another event for 100 in a few breakout rooms can cost up to $8,000. If this was an event where we got 100 people, it’d be $80 a person - that’s without showings scheduled (which might be plausible if you take out food costs - which can be $2,500 to start!)

See how quickly it stacks up? Another example - our BBC Sherlock Series licenses are roughly $1,400 for each time we have a screening alone!

Now, this doesn’t mean it couldn’t happen - but for us to get a 1 day event in NYC where we could gather, we could take a stab in the dark and say it’d cost $6,000-8,000 for a ‘high estimate’. We’d have to make a downpayment (hotels won’t just ‘reserve’ space), and find folks willing to pay $50-$100 a piece. We just don’t know how many people we can guarantee will buy tickets - and we’d be most likely be lacking another KEY component- SPONSORS - companies that will use your event for advertising and pay good money that you can use to run your event - think a Comic-con - Marvel throws money at San Diego Comic Con so they can have ads run on merchandies and panels to get people to see their movies, read their books, etc. Dealers have to pay for a table, etc.

Our staff also has other obligations - school, families, work, etc. We are proudly non-profit and plan on staying that way. We all volunteer our time and effort to do the small scale and larger scale one day meet-ups, but they do take time. A convention would require us to at least double our staff or get volunteers that would work with us, and we’d need to announce MONTHS in advance - given that we had the funds to make a downpayment.

Again, we love your idea, and we’re working on making our Series II screening EPIC as much as we can. We’d love to have a Sherlock Holmes convention someday, and we’re working on having more meet-ups and events that do bring different verses (were you at our ‘Study in Sherlock?’) together.

GOOD NEWS THOUGH - There ARE events that we attend, but don’t run that are along the lines you are thinking about.

The Baker Street Irregulars Weekend (each year in January - NYC)

Scintillation of Scions (this upcoming June 9 in Maryland!)

Thanks again for your awesome question.

We are currently working on our posting of pictures, so keep looking. We HAVE uploaded our ‘We Believe’ photos on our map HERE - and you can win an AWESOME Sherlock Prize pack if you do the same - so check it out!

Hello!

Thanks for your question!

In ordered to be entered for the Giveaway Package, we ask that you use our posters that our graphics team has worked so hard on. We’re working on putting up the large single letter per page versions as well!

You of course can upload a picture of whatever support / examples you have or find, but please bear in mind we have plans to show off our work and support to proffessional media entities. However, if your entry does not have the SherlockNYC logo, we’re afraid it is not eligible.

Please also note: if chosen, we will contact the email address that was left with the download and only one package will be sent out to that person.

AND YES, YOU CAN ENTER TWICE! We’ll put up a “Save Undershaw” sign. There is a limit of 2 entries per person.

We’ll be posting up an official flier in the next day or 2 with full details.

Thanks!
