INTER-MAI-75 July 30 and 31
Looks like the folks at MAI will have an experiment run right at the end of July. Crew timeline shows activation of the SSTV system beginning with setup starting at 16:00 UTC on July 30. The system will be powered down that same day at 19:30 UTC. The next day (July 31), the system will be again active from 13:25-19:15 UTC. Downlink is presumed to be on the traditional 145.80 MHz frequency. Mode will likely be PD120 but not officially known at this time.

June SSTV recap
Looks like everyone had several opportunities to capture images from the ISS during the June 29-July 1, 2018 period (and even some extra time beyond what was announced). It appears the images were cut off on the sides but were still easy to visualize.
*** UPDATE** June 6
It seems someone on ISS has afforded everyone with an extension of SSTV operations. Nothing on the schedule so no idea how long it will last. Next school event (which needs the same radio) is on July 13.

Below are examples of each of the 12 images as captured by the indicated ground station.
