Inanimate Transformation: A History and Look at Statues, Pool Toys, Plushies, and More
Friday July 4, 2025 9:00pm - 10:00pm EDT
DLCC 316
Plushies, pool toys, piñatas, statues, flatten beings, living fursuits, have all been growing in popularity within the furry fandom in the last few years, bringing more interest to inanimate transformation. What is the psychological draw to such transformation and can we trace the history of such shapeshifting in myth and folklore to the Golden Age of Science Fiction and Silver Age of Comics to the cartoons of the 80s and kid commercials of the 90s to the modern day.

Waaahh I’m not at Anime Expo?!?! I’m at Anthrocon?!?! With both big cons happening always the same week, it’s almost like two polar opposites are happening on both sides of the country…or is it? This panel will not only compare and contrast anime and furry cons, how they operate and the types of events that happen, but also reveal the hidden origin of both otaku and anime fandoms, and celebrate our common ancestor Mark Merlino!!

Furries? In my Art Gallery? (It's more likely than you think...)
Saturday July 5, 2025 1:00pm - 2:00pm EDT
DLCC 316
There is a new generation of artists in the furry community – wildly experimental, in conversation with both the fandom and the art world, and critically engaged with the queer possibilities of lives lived in-between the real and the virtual. We’ve invited these artists back to our room, for a group experience that is wholly our own. “Room Party” is an exhibition of work by over 50 contemporary furry artists, running June 6th – July 18th July at Bunker Projects in Pittsburgh. Join the curators (Lane Linecum, Brett Hanover, Paul Peng, and Cass Dickenson) and artists (panel participants TBD) for a look behind the scenes at the development of this exciting show! What does it take to put on a large-scale group art show? What happens when furries invade the fine art world? What’s next for furry art, and why does it matter now? Why is there a pile of plushies in the white cube? All your artsy-fartsy questions will be answered!

In this panel, we'll be challenging normative relationship paradigms and exploring healthier ways to approach various types of connection with others, centered around freedom, authenticity, and respect. Though I'll be speaking from a primarily non-monogamous perspective, the content will be relevant to all relationship dynamics, including non-romantic ones. Topics may include communication, handling feelings and needs, expectations, and personal autonomy. Audience questions and input encouraged!

Exploring Identities Through Furry
Saturday July 5, 2025 4:30pm - 5:30pm EDT
DLCC 316
Identities are a huge part of how we relate to ourselves and others, as well as a form of self-expression. The furry community has always been a place where people can explore different aspects of their identity, whether that’s gender, sexuality, or other facets of self. In this panel, we’ll talk about how people explore their identities through their fursona(s) and the community, and take a deeper look at the concept of identity as a whole in connecting to people and meeting our needs.
