due Monday 10 February 2025

The International Center of Medieval Art (ICMA) seeks proposals for sessions to be held under the organization’s sponsorship in 2026 at the annual meeting of the College Art Association (CAA). The CAA Conference offers an essential opportunity for medievalists to present research and engage in discussion with a full spectrum of art historians. To that end, we are particularly interested in sessions that might attract (as panelists and audience members) medievalists as well as scholars from other corners of the discipline, while showcasing the vitality and breadth of the topics studied by members of the ICMA. We would be pleased to consider sessions that propose co-sponsorship with another scholarly organization. Session organizers and speakers must be ICMA members if seeking travel funding from the ICMA.


Proposals must include the following in one single Doc or PDF with the organizer’s name in the title:  

  1. Session abstract   

  2. CV of the organizer(s)   

  3. Session organizers may also include a list of potential speakers   

Please upload all session proposals as a single DOC or PDF by Monday 10 February 2025 here.
 
For inquiries, contact the Chair of the ICMA Programs & Lectures Committee: Alice Isabella Sullivan, Tufts University, alice.sullivan@tufts.edu.
