About this event

The 49th annual D.C. History Conference will take place March 23 - March 25, 2023. The conference is an interdisciplinary, community conference considering the District’s past, present, and future. Since 1973, the conference organizers aim to provide a welcoming, educational, and stimulating forum for original research on and engagement with the history of the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area (including Maryland, Virginia, and the federal government). The D.C. History Conference is co-presented by the DC History Center, DC Public Library, and HumanitiesDC; sponsored by American University; and organized by a volunteer planning committee.

The D.C. History Center invites submissions for workshops from scholars across the humanities and related fields, researchers, artists, local organizers and practitioners, and the community-at-large. They encourage the participation of students at all education levels, including high school presenters, undergraduates, and graduate students presenting research in progress. Submission Deadline: Friday, December 2, 2022 at 11:59 PM ET.
