Welcome to ATHE 2021!

Dear educators and artists, scholars and students, administrators and everyone in between,

Welcome to the 2021 Annual ATHE Conference! While we cannot be together in person, we look forward to sharing scholarship and artistry with our colleagues across the country and the globe. With 250 concurrent sessions, 30 focus group and committee meetings, five streaming performances, two plenaries, one keynote and a master class, and many informal social events, we hope there is something for everyone!

Before the conference starts, review the live session schedule and our exhibitor gallery. And don’t forget to login to the CHAT function to start informal conversations with your peers. (It’s like the hotel bar, only you get to bring the iced tea or the cocktail!)
