Annual Conferences
Every year, usually in early May, hundreds of VAF members assemble somewhere on the continent for our annual conference. We spend at least two days touring the area to learn first-hand about its architectural and landscape heritage. On Saturday, a juried paper session provides attendees a forum to share their scholarship and field work. In addition, workshops, board and committee meetings, special events, and excursions create an enjoyable and memorable event. Past meetings have been held throughout North America.
