The following description was submitted by the event organizer.

Science fiction conventions in Portland (as well as the sponsoring organization, OSFCI) got their start in 1978 with the PorSFiS Symposium, a one-day event at Portland State University. That tradition is being revived with a small SF literary event this summer, Symposium 2026, helping fill the gap left by OryCon’s demise. This one-day event will be a reach-out to fans who have enjoyed Portland-area literary events and embrace their enthusiasm for science fiction and fantasy writing in books, films, and television. Enjoy a simple, small daytime event that allows fans to celebrate the career and achievements of Steve Perry, who currently resides in the Portland metro area. Providing a model for creating future similar events.

Children 9 and under are admitted free, but there are no children’s activities. Admission is good all day and applies whether you attend one panel or all of them. This is a single-day event, and it will conclude before dinner. Most people should be able to arrive after breakfast and return home by early evening.
