Next Club Meeting Set For This Saturday, March 14, Downtown!
MonSFFA’s next meeting is scheduled to take place this Saturday, March 14, from 1:00PM to 5:00PM! Note that we are returning to our downtown function space at the Nouvel Hotel beginning with this March meeting! As usual, out-of-town club members may take part online via ZOOM; you may gather online a half-hour early, at 12:30PM, just to give you an opportunity to settle in before the meeting officially begins at 1:00PM.
March Meeting Theme:
As a tie-in to our lead presentation, we’re asking folk to bring in, for our display table, any Alien merchandise they may possess—books, posters, action figures, scale models, games, etc.
On the Agenda:
They Mostly Come at Night…
Mostly. We explore the popular Alien franchise, launched in 1979 with Ridley Scott’s seminal sci-fi/horror film. In space, no one can hear humanity’s collective scream when faced with one of the genre’s most terrifying interstellar monsters!
Architectural Exemplars and Curiosities on the SF Screen
We showcase a few noteworthy buildings and avant-garde architectural marvels featured as representations of the future on the SF screen!
Telepathy
A staple of paranormal belief, telepathy is examined from the perspective of true believers. Meanwhile, across many stories over many years, SF/F has adopted this sixth sense as a story device, exploring the power of clairvoyance, and considering the ramifications of telepaths existing within a non-telepathic society.
We’re looking forward to seeing as many of you as possible, in person or online, at our March 2026 meeting! Tell a friend; invite them to join us! See you all this Saturday, March 14, 1:00PM-5:00PM!
Please Note: While we strive to keep on schedule, we do, sometimes, fall behind a little, or find ourselves having to reshuffle the order of items on the agenda for one reason or another, or reschedule planned presentations/discussions. Therefore, please understand that all programming is subject to change!
