MoPOP’s Science Fiction and Fantasy Hall of Fame Inductees 2024: The Creators
For twenty years, MoPOP has been the proud steward of the Science Fiction and Fantasy Hall of Fame, preserving and celebrating this essential component of pop culture history. Once per solar cycle, the public helps usher in a new class of nominees, and a panel of professionals cast their votes to select four new inductees—two creators and two creations.
Each addition to the Hall of Fame reshapes the whole, providing fresh inspiration and lived experiences, furthering MoPOP’s mission to ensure the full, diverse scope of science fiction and fantasy stories, creations, and creators is shared, centered, and honored.
