Call for Submissions | DC History Conference

The DC History Conference is an interdisciplinary, community conference considering the past, present, and future of the District, co-presented by the DC History Center and DC Public Library, sponsored by the Graduate Program in Public History at American University, and organized by a volunteer planning committee. 

 

The 48th annual DC History Conference takes place March 31 – April 2, 2022. The conference organizers aim to provide a welcoming, educational, and stimulating forum for original research and engagement with the history of the Washington, DC metropolitan area (including Maryland, Virginia, and the federal government). For the first time, this three-day event will be offered at no cost to attendees.

 

We invite participation from scholars across the public humanities and other fields, community researchers, artists, local organizers and practitioners, and the community at-large. We encourage the participation of students at all education levels, particularly graduate students presenting research-in-progress.
