The American Folklore Society (AFS) has announced that their 2021 Annual Meeting will be held in a hybrid format due to ongoing challenges of the Covid-19 Pandemic. “We are proceeding with both an in-person gathering in Harrisburg, and a virtual meeting for those who cannot attend in person,” the announcement states, with a further note that “This decision has been driven by our steadfast dedication to keeping our meeting safe and accessible to as many people as possible,” with several pieces of feedback from a recent survey noted as support for this decision.
Those who would like to apply to present should make note that the proposal deadline has been set for April 30, 2021. Potential participants are directed to the 2021 Annual Meeting FAQs page for more information.
