2025 sci-fi & fantasy expo

step into a world of sci-fi & fantasy

Step into a world of imagination at the Sci-Fi & Fantasy Expo on May 2 from 10 AM–3 PM at The Kenny! This free, all-ages event is packed with interactive activities, creative experiences, and fandom fun for everyone to enjoy.

Explore the Art Exhibition, test your skills in the Spider-Man Maze for a chance to win a prize, and take the stage at K-Pop Demon Hunters Karaoke. Get hands-on with mini printing, button making, and DIY wand crafting, or watch live screen-printing and lathe-turning demonstrations. Guests can also enjoy coloring stations, card trading, and meet cosplayers—so feel free to come dressed as your favorite character!

Artists of all ages are invited to submit their work for display in the exhibition by contacting the Skills Center or dropping off pieces at Bldg. 980.

Kick off the day early with a sci-fi themed Cars & Coffee in The Kenny parking lot, then stay for an exciting lineup of activities that bring science fiction and fantasy to life.

mission statement

Little Rock Air Force Base’s Sci-Fi & Fantasy Expo is an arts-based convention. Our goal is to bring back appreciation for art and literature through comics, graphic novels, anime, and gaming. These entities have become popular among children and young adults, but as these “kids” grow older, these interests can be viewed as childish.

While movies and cosplay have become very popular and a huge part of the excitement for the comic and entertainment industry; the Sci-Fi & Fantasy Expo strives to bring the focus back to their true origins by emphasizing the artists, writers, and creators themselves.
