Being Sober in the Fandom
Have you ever wanted to party sober in the fandom? How do you navigate con spaces with those goals? Is it even possible?! We are here to tell you yes! Come share your experiences with others who have the same objectives. This is a space to relax, talk about what works, what doesn’t, and how we can support each other in making healthier decisions for ourselves. Not interested in being sober, but want to change your behaviors? You have a space too!

Tigers and Bears and Coasters Oh My: A History of Japan's Oldest Theme Parks
Once a botanical garden and a zoo, the Hanayashiki of Asakusa, founded in 1853, is Japan's oldest theme park. In keeping with this year's Anthrocon theme, this talk will introduce its early history, its evolution, and how it measures against other, newer parks and related innovations in late 19th and early 20th century Japan. How has such a relatively small venue survived? And what does all of this have to do with Super Smash Brothers? The answers may surprise you!
