Building Worlds, Building Community<br /> Science fiction is one of the modern world’s leading art forms, and its fandom has invented the future as much as the genre’s writers.<br /> The works of outstanding science-fiction writers show us how to face and understand emerging worlds in tumultuous times. Through the workings of fans we understand how to create community.<br /> Fans imagined a community into existence long before the internet made it easy. They could be opinionated and quarrelsome, yet they worked out rules and rituals that made it possible to flourish.<br /> The connections between readers and writers, united by a common sense of wonder and imagination, are a gift to both sides—and ultimately to the rest of us as well. <br /> Among these connections is Worldcon, the principal annual gathering of science-fiction fandom. This convention has been running since the 1930s, and is home to the famed Hugo Awards. <br /> This exhibit features Worldcon material through the years and examines how science fiction has shaped—and been shaped by—society and culture in the real world. <br /> Source(s): The Guardian

Pictured here are covers from Worldcon programs through the years.
