Poster Sessions | 2007 Annual Conference | College Art Association

Poster Sessionsare informal presentations for small groups displayed on poster boards by an inpidual. The poster display is usually a mixture of a brief narrative paper, intermixed with illustrations, tables or graphs, and other presentation materials. With a few concisely written areas of focus, the poster display communicates the essence of the presenter’s research, synthesizing its main ideas and research directions. Poster displays will be on view for the duration of the conference, beginning on Thursday morning. On Thursday and Friday, from 12:30 to 2:00 PM, presenters will be available at the Poster area.
