We hope to see you at the SIG-sponsored panels and/or at our SIG social at SCMS 2026! We'll also be using our Discord, so if you miss a panel or can't attend the conference, you can still be part of the conversation.

You probably just got a sketchy-looking email from "Group Internal Messaging" that might have been flagged as spam. It's from us. You can open it! We're inviting you to a thing on Friday. I complained to the home office that it doesn't say SCMS on it. Please share with non-Blue Sky friends.

Two FaAS panels in this session - one on reactionary fandom and one on ageing and fandom! Unless you can split yourself like a Doopler, you can ask questions or ask for a link to a presentation of the panel you don't attend in the SIG Discord. #SCMS25
