Hubbard and Hammonds where the Salon creators and leaders.

The ongoing COVID-19 pandimic has necessitated a great deal of change, including forcing large social events (e.g. movies, sports, events, concerts) to temporarily close or postpone. Many people elf-quarantined in compliance with CDC guidelines. Durning this time, many digital programs were created for people to enjoy fromtheir own homes. Such programs have facilitated the transitioning of various fandoms from public to private spaces. This salon investigates fandom at home and how COVID-19 has influenced the way[s] fandom is perceived and experienced.
