The Call for Papers is now open for the Western History Association’s 66th Annual Conference, October 21-24, 2026, in Portland, Oregon.
The 2026 conference theme, “Unsettled: New Wests, New Lessons,” acknowledges how communities and scholars continue to expand our understanding of who prospered and suffered in the North American West. They have unsettled the past by showing us that the past is unsettling.
With their insights in mind, the 2026 Program Committee calls for papers, panels, roundtables, workshops, and innovative session formats that encourage us to learn lessons from each other.
