This one-day virtual event on July 26, 2026 is in addition to our 3-day conference in November. While all are welcome, the symposium has been added to our events especially to accommodate scholars outside the Mid-Atlantic region and those for whom an in-person event is otherwise inaccessible. More info about our November conference In Baltimore will be posted soon.

Submissions for the Symposium are open though April 30, 2026.
