SAA offers multiple ways for its members to participate in the Society and to connect with colleagues.
Interest groups offer SAA members the opportunity to exchange information and ideas on specific topics. To promote these conversations, interest groups may support an e-Community. e-Communities foster discussions and the exchange of ideas with colleagues from around the globe.
Each year, SAA accepts submissions for its annual meeting between May and the first Thursday of September. Learn more about SAA's submissions process by visiting the Annual Meeting web page.
SAA encourages members to submit research for journal or magazine articles, to contribute
book reviews, and to propose book-length works with The SAA Press.
Share your expertise and gain valuable experience by volunteering for a committee or task force during SAA’s Open Call for Committee Service each November. Visit the Committee and Task Force page to see a list of SAA's volunteer committees.
The Annual Meeting would not be possible without volunteers. Volunteer for two, 4 hour shifts and receive a complimentary meeting registration. To see detailed descriptions of volunteer opportunities and to apply, visit our Annual Meeting page.
SAA’s Online Seminar Series offers free and fee-based
professional development opportunities designed for students and archaeologists seeking to enhance their skill sets or knowledge base. View an online webinar with your anthropology club, workplace, or as an individual.
