UPDATE: The Call for Posters is closed. The final deadline to submit a poster proposal was August 15, 2025

The poster session is an opportunity for all ASOR members, especially students and Early Career Members, to be involved in the academic program of ASOR’s Annual Meeting, as well as to get the word out about your research.  Posters are an ideal format for presenting archaeological projects in general; a technical aspect of your project; a spectacular find from the field season; or complex graphic and/or quantitative data.

The 2025 ASOR Poster Session will be held at the Hilton Boston Park Plaza as part of ASOR’s hybrid Annual Meeting.  A poster may be presented in-person during the poster session or shared virtually. All accepted posters will be hosted in an online gallery and the PDF files will be due on November 7.

The in-person Poster Session will be held on November 22 from 12:45-2:00pm. Presenters should plan to be available during this time to speak with attendees and answer questions about their poster.

ASOR Academic Membership and Annual Meeting Registration are requirements for all presenters on the academic program.

Poster Session Chair Opening

ASOR invites applications for Chair of the Poster Session. Standing Session Chairs volunteer to serve a three year term (2026-2028) that is renewable for a second term. The Chair of the Poster Session also serves as a voting, ex-officio, member of the ASOR Program Committee for the duration of their term. The Chair of the Poster Session may request to work with a co-chair (with approval by the PC Chair[s]), but only the standing Chair of the Poster Session will serve on the PC. The application form is brief and the second-half of the form pertains to the Session Chair role. The deadline to apply is November 10th.

It is highly recommended that you reach out to the current chair of the Poster Session (Sarah Wenner) to learn more about the role and responsibilities before applying.
