Canadian Archaeological Association Annual Conference 2017

The CAA 2017 Organizing Committee is delighted to announce that the 50th annual meeting of the CAA will be held in Ottawa-Gatineau from May 10 to May 13, 2017. The meeting will be hosted by the Canadian Museum of History. The conference venue will be the Four Points by Sheraton Hotel and Conference Centre in Gatineau, directly across the river from downtown Ottawa and immediately opposite the Museum.

Not only will this be the 50th annual meeting of the CAA, but it will be held in our National Capital Region during Canada’s 150th year. We are excited to be a part of this unique opportunity to showcase our country’s rich cultural heritage.

We are planning an exciting program of academic sessions and social events, including a chance to see the new Canadian History Hall before it officially opens to the public on July 1, 2017, behind-the-scenes tours of the largest and most diverse collection of Canadian archaeological material in the country, and a banquet in the Museum’s beautiful Grand Hall.

We look forward to seeing you in 2017!
