    Join SAA for a conversation about what topics should be workshopped.

    In 1974, the rise of the cultural resources management industry spurred the holding of a conference at the Airlie House retreat in Maryland. The report from that meeting in 1977 helped pave instruction for archaeological practices and the shape of the federal archaeology program in the next decades. But the world is rapidly changing, and archaeology needs to reconvene a new Airlie House for a new century. As part of the effort to define workshop topics on the future of archaeology, the SAA is hosting a webinar on February 8, 2023 to review the impact that Airlie House had on the profession, outline the results of a recent survey on priority topics, and open the floor for conversation about missing or additional workshop topics. 

    Please join us on February 8 for this important and informative event. 

    • Registration will close February 6.
    • Registrants will receive a confirmation email immediately and an email with log in information the day before the event. If you do not receive the automated confirmation email, please double-check that you have completed registration.
    • This event is FREE.
