HIAA Majlis at CAA 2024--Proposals due June 25, 2023

HIAA Majlis

The HIAA Majlis, held periodically in conjunction with the conference of the College Art Association (CAA), offers an opportunity for junior scholars in Islamic art to learn about their colleagues' work and to connect with more senior scholars.

HIAA invites submissions from graduate students at ABD level or recent PhDs to present at its next Majlis, to take place in New York during CAA's Annual Conference. [Note: Although we hope that the conference and associated programming will be held in person, in the event of continued restrictions on large gatherings, the Majlis will be held virtually]

HIAA invites proposals for 20-minute papers on current research focused on any topic, time period or region related to Islamic art, architecture, and archaeology. 

Proposals should be submitted by email to HIAA secretary Emily Neumeier at sec.hiaa@gmail.com as a single document which includes the following:

** a cover sheet with your name, academic status, contact information (postal address, e-mail address, telephone number/s) and title of proposed presentation

** an abstract of no more than 300 words

Proposals are due by June 25, 2023.

Please note that those selected to present at the Majlis must be current members of HIAA at the time of presenting.
