- Jim Henson Archives Director Karen Falk and Jim Henson Legacy President Craig Shemin will be discussing the Henson Archives and Shemin’s upcoming book about the legendary Sam & Friends.
- FerryCon 2021 is hosted by the Dobbs Ferry Public Library in New York, but not to worry if you’re not nearby! The con is running April 24th 10am – 6pm EST via Zoom, and all you have to do is Email [email protected] to get the FerryCon 2021 Zoom link.
- When you arrive you will be in the Waiting Room. Once you have been let in, you will be able to choose between the “Artist Alley” or “Programs” breakout rooms on Zoom. The Jim Henson Archives presentation will be found in the Programs section.
