Join OSOS at PAX West This Weekend!

OLYMPIA – The Office of the Secretary of State (OSOS) will be at the PAX West convention, Friday Aug. 29 – Monday, Sept. 1, 2025, at the Seattle Convention Center. 

Come to Booth 134 in the Arch Building to learn more about how our office supports Washingtonians through libraries, corporations and charities, civic engagement and elections, preservation of state history and artifacts in the State Archives, and statewide programs like the Address Confidentiality Program, Productivity Board, and Combined Fund Drive.  

During your visit, stop by our table and make sure to pick up free goodies, including a limited-edition pin of Finn the Seal, our OSOS mascot, and a previously unreleased Finn D20 die.  

On Sunday, Aug. 31 from 10:30 – 11:30 a.m. in the Frog Theatre, Secretary of State Steve Hobbs will moderate the Selling Your Game Internationally – Japan: One Year Later panel discussion. Hear from Secretary Hobbs and Washington-based tabletop game companies about their experiences one year after returning from a 2024 trade mission to Japan, recommendations for game makers that aspire to go international with their product, and future opportunities selling games abroad.  

We hope to see you there!
