Sid City Social Club virtual Craft Fair & Artist’s Alley - Friday, July 30th

If any of you are convention-goers, you’ll know one of the best parts of a convention is the vendor’s hall. Sid City Social Club, the official fan website of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine’s Alexander Siddig, is hosting a virtual sort of vendor’s hall this Friday from 3 - 7pm ET over Zoom, where vendors and shoppers can get together to support each other.

To find out more about the event, including how to attend and how to register as a vendor, head to sidcity.net.

GalaxyCon Live: William Shatner - Friday, July 30th - Saturday, July 31st

Next up, William Shatner is appearing at GalaxyCon in Raleigh, North Carolina this weekend. If you can’t make the convention, don’t worry, because they’re also livestreaming his Q&A panel, Saturday, July 31st at 2pm ET. And even though this is a mixed event, in-person and online, you can purchase video chats and autographs too.
