ClexaCon is named after two iconic LGBTQ characters, Clarke and Lexa from the CW’s The 100. The storyline inspired fans to push for positive representation in the media and raised over $160K for The Trevor Project, a nonprofit organization supporting LGBTQ youth. While Clexa serves as the inspiration behind ClexaCon, we are a multi-fandom event celebrating many ships, past and present, throughout TV and film.
