ARSC's 57th Annual Conference and Workshops will be hosted in-person May 17-20, 2023 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania at the DoubleTree Hotel Downtown!

The Association for Recorded Sound Collections invites proposals for speaker presentations, posters, and panel discussions at its 57th annual conference, to be held in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, May 17-20, 2023 at the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel & Suites Downtown.

ARSC welcomes proposals on any aspect of sound recording. In recognition of our host city, we especially encourage presentations across all genres and eras that highlight composers, broadcasters, musicians, performers, record labels, studios, songwriters, and personalities from the greater Pennsylvania area of the United States.

We invite sound recording scholars, collectors, preservationists, and creators to engage in a broad range of topics that cross geographic, cultural, and collection boundaries. We seek presentations that are informative, display a passion for their subjects, and include compelling audio and/or audiovisual content.

Share your special interests and expertise with our engaged community of archivists, audio engineers, collectors, historians, musicians, and preservationists!
