PRESS RELEASE



Call for Sessions opens for SAH Virtual 2025

by SAH News | Mar 05, 2025

The Society of Architectural Historians invites those interested in the history of the built environment to submit a session proposal for its virtual conference—SAH Virtual 2025—that will be held from Thursday, September 18, to Saturday, September 20, 2025.

The purpose of SAH Virtual 2025 is to share and discuss research in architectural history and related disciplines that cover every period in the history of architecture and all aspects of the built environment. In addition to architectural historians, we seek submissions from allied and adjacent disciplines including (but not limited to) architecture, landscape, urban history, art history, design, archaeology, sociology, anthropology, geography, environmental studies, etc. The guiding principle for SAH Virtual 2025 is inter-disciplinary sharing and collaboration. We hope this will be an opportunity for people from any discipline who are interested in the history of the built environment to participate in a meaningful exchange of ideas.

SAH Virtual 2025 will be comprised entirely of pre-formed sessions. Each session will have between four and five papers, with 15 minutes allotted for each paper presentation. Session organizers will be responsible for the theme of the session and for finding appropriate presenters.

Submissions are due by May 19, 2025. The full call for session proposals can be found at https://www.sah.org/conferences/virtual-2025
