Sad but not entirely unexoected news arrives today as the gang at Rancho Obi-Wan announce that their 2022 gala, due to take place next month on 20th August in Petaluma, has been cancelled. With the rigours of Celebration and the titanic efforts put in to making their part in the show happen, they have opted to once again bring us a virtual event, with more news to follow soon.
Stuff does indeed happen. Despite our best intentions and plans, we have made the painful decision to cancel the Rancho Obi-Wan in-person 2022 Gala, which we had previously announced would be Aug. 20. Frankly, Star Wars Celebration sapped our energy, resources, and ability to arrange things in a timely or quality fashion.
But the good news is that we’re working to have something new and exciting online for mid-August. With the positive feedback from our joint four-collection display at Celebration, we’ve decided to provide an online look not only at usually hidden treasures of Rancho Obi-Wan, but also a virtual look at the collections of super collectors Gus Lopez, Duncan Jenkins, and Lisa Stevens & Vic Wertz.
We’ll be sending more detailed information closer to the date about how you can view the Rancho Obi-Wan Facebook Live presentation of Star Wars collectors’ heaven. It will be our gift to you, and we hope you’ll join us that day for the fun and information.
The virtual Rancho events are an absolute joy, and a treasure trove of information that you simply cannot get anywhere else. We’ll be sure to bring all the details of that event, and stay tuned to Fantha Tracks socials and Radio for more news.
