Chair a Session or Propose a Paper for the Annual Conference
The Annual Conference Committee invites CAA members to participate in the Annual Conference by either chairing a program session or presenting a paper at a program session. Conference sessions cover the breadth of current thought and research in art, art and architectural history, theory and criticism, pedagogical issues, museum and curatorial practice, conservation, and developments in technology.
Propose a Paper for 2011
The deadline for proposals of papers for the 2011 Centennial Conference in New York passed on May 3, 2010.
The Call for Participation, published annually in February or March, is mailed to all CAA individual and institutional members and posted to the CAA website. This publication, which lists many of the panels and presentations for the upcoming Annual Conference, contains instructions on how to propose a paper for a session. It also includes a call for Poster Session proposals and describes the Open Forms sessions.
