Past Conferences
AAAE’s annual conference brings together members and colleagues from across the globe. It is the perfect opportunity to connect with fellow arts administrators and educators and explore the complex questions of arts and cultural management. Our members gather to share their latest research findings, explore the newest practices and keep up with the rapidly changing ways way art is made, supported, experienced, and delivered in markets across the globe.
Conferences offer programming in research, pedagogy, and practice. Hosted by AAAE members in a different location every year, they afford members and attendees an opportunity to explore the arts and culture of new places.
Due to COVID-19, the in-person conference was moved online for the 2020, 2021, and 2022 Annual Conferences. The video recordings are available to all AAAE members HERE within the AAAE Members Portal. (You must be logged into the Portal to follow the link.)
