2024 AAP Annual Conference

The AAP conference will take place over a day and a half this summer, from July 31-August 1, 2024. It will be held at the Loews Hotel Atlanta in Atlanta, GA, preceding the annual Association for Theatre in Higher Education (ATHE) conference. A detailed conference schedule will be posted later this summer. 

Registration for all tenured and tenure-track participants will be be $25. Registration for all students, contingent faculty, retirees, and independent scholars/artists will be $15. All participants must register, even if not presenters. All presenters must register by June 15, 2024. 

Tickets to our annual post-conference "Schmoozefest" dinner (held at a local Asian restaurant, TBD) will be $25. Graduate students may also sign up for a free AAP-sponsored mentorship lunch at the time of registration. 

Panel/workshop presenters  must be current AAP members. If you already renewed your memebership via PayPal for 2024 (i.e. between January 1, 2024 and now), then you are a current member. If you are not yet an AAP member or have not yet renewed your membership for 2024, please do so when you register for the conference by selecting the appropriate Membership event "ticket" in addition to your registration fee. Membership rates are: General $40 / Graduate Students $25 / Retirees $25. 

AAP aims to be an inclusive and accessible organization. If you are facing financial hardship and cannot afford the membership dues, please reach out to the AAP Board by emailing aaponline.info@gmail.com.
