Second Life's Made By People festival, open June 20 through July 5, has activated portals and in-world events to spotlight work from 26 creators and 12 artists. The current moment centers on neonoverdrive as an artist highlight and a Prideful Mysteria backdrop that visitors are using in meetups and displays. Organizers and participants are framing the festival around creative work made by real people, explicitly rejecting GEN AI contributions as the event's defining theme.
