About the residency

The College Art Association (CAA), founded in 1911, is the oldest and largest professional organization for artists, art historians, curators, and educators in the visual arts. Its annual conference serves as a primary gathering for the field, hosting panels, workshops, and networking events that shape academic and curatorial discourse. CAA's mission centers on advancing the visual arts through advocacy, professional development, and the dissemination of scholarship, with a commitment to fostering diversity and inclusion within the discipline.

Planning your application

Proposals for the Annual Conference are typically submitted through a Call for Participation, with deadlines in the spring. Applicants should craft clear, well-researched abstracts that align with the conference theme and demonstrate methodological rigor. For studio artists, include documentation of recent work; for art historians, ensure a strong theoretical framework. CAA values diversity and encourages submissions from underrepresented groups. Review the submission guidelines carefully and consider proposing a complete session to increase chances of acceptance.
