About SCA Spring Meetings
SCA spring meetings are held every two years. The goal is to showcase the best work in interdisciplinary, innovative, and critical anthropologies in alternative settings in contrast to the larger AAA conventions.
When SCA was first founded in the 1980s, conferences were as small as 50 or 60 attendees, with conversations organized around two to three plenaries, with a few extra panels on the side.
Since that time, with the growth of the SCA and the drive to share in members' work, as many as 300 now attend, with approximately 100 presenters in a weekend program. Holding to the original format of SCA conferences from their inception, we look for works-in-progress that turn on a central organizing question across keynote lectures, plenary presentations, and the panels and individual papers accepted.
SCA conferences are held in small, great locations--such as Portland's Governor Hotel, Milwaukee's Pfister Hotel, or the Queen Mary in Long Beach, California--with plenty of space for social engagement to work at a relaxed pace.
