After Dark
The story doesn’t end when the show floors close. Share your talent at a poetry slam (or enjoy listening to other!), cozy up for a movie in your PJs, or don a gown for a fantasy-themed ball. Happening on Saturday until 10:30 PM on Levels 4 & 5 of Javits North.
Panels & Workshops
From authors and creatives sharing a behind-the-scenes look at your favorite stories to lively discussions on your favorite tropes and fandoms to blinging out a cherished book, take in a panel or get hands-on with a workshop.
