HECAA Emerging Scholars Showcase
Online, 5 March 2024
Proposals due by 26 January 2024
We at HECAA are thrilled to invite emerging scholars studying the art, architecture, and visual culture of the long eighteenth century around the globe to participate in our 2024 virtual showcase. A beloved HECAA tradition, the showcase is intended as a platform for emerging scholars to connect with the wider HECAA community and get feedback on their research.
Scholars will each be given 3–5 minutes to present their work, followed by an open question and answer session. This year’s Emerging Scholars Showcase will be held on Tuesday, March 5 (time TBD based on participants’ time zones). As in previous years, an additional showcase may be added if there is sufficient interest; so, we encourage you to apply even if you are unable to present on Tuesday, March 5.
To apply, please fill out this form by Friday, January 26 at midnight (EST). Emerging scholars may be current graduate students (MAs or PhDs) and early career researchers who have received their PhDs in the past five years. We ask that presenters apply no more than once every three years to allow for as many individuals as possible to participate. Also note that you do not have to be a member of HECAA to apply to participate in the Emerging Scholars Showcase, so feel free to circulate widely in your networks. Please, direct all questions, suggestions (and love) to hecaa.emergingscholarsrep@gmail.com.
Warmly,
Demetra Vogiatzaki
HECAA Board Member At-Large, Emerging Scholars Representative
