The Southwest Popular/American Culture Association is pleased to announce that the 2021 annual conference will be a virtual conference, held the week of February 22, 2021. With so much unknown about the potential for dangers from the COVID-19 virus pandemic, the decision to move to an online format for the 2021 conference has been made out of an abundance of caution. More than anything, we want all of the participants who put so much into our annual conference to have a safe venue to explore their academic curiosity without the concern of getting ill.  

We are accepting proposals now. We look forward to seeing you online!
