SECAC 2019 Call for Sessions
Type: Conferences & Symposia [View all]
Posted by: SECAC
Deadline: Wed, January 2nd, 2019
The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga is excited to host SECAC 2019 at the Chattanoogan Hotel from October 16-19, 2019. The Conference draws on Chattanooga’s rich history as a regional crossroads to fulfill SECAC’s mission of promoting inclusive dialogue and fostering compelling avenues of exchange.
SECAC is a national non-profit organization devoted to education and research in the visual arts. Though founded initially as an arts organization based in the southeast, SECAC has grown to include individual and institutional members from across the United States and around the world, becoming the second largest national organization of its kind.
All conference sessions will take place at the Chattanoogan Hotel, conveniently located in the heart of our lively downtown and steps away from many cafes, restaurants, and attractions. Centrally located in southeastern Tennessee, our “Scenic City” sits along the Tennessee River, tucked in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains. Chattanooga was twice named “Best Town Ever” by Outside Magazine and serves as a destination for adventure seekers and outdoor enthusiasts. Also coined “Gig City,” Chattanooga boasts the fastest internet in the nation, and the city prides itself on cultivating a spirit of entrepreneurship and innovation. The Hunter Museum of American Art, outdoor sculpture park Sculpture Fields, and a growing gallery scene also contribute to a burgeoning reputation for the arts in our city.
Call for Sessions Now Open
We are currently seeking proposals for panels that speak to the diversity of research interests, theoretical questions, and professional criticisms that currently abound in studio art, design, and art history. We also encourage sessions that embrace alternate presentation formats, including performances, workshops, demonstrations, roundtables, and multimedia presentations. The deadline to submit 200-word session proposals is 11:59 pm EST on January 2, 2019. Learn more at https://secacart.org/page/Chattanooga.
