Write a piece for AN (Anthropology News) about your ideas, thoughts, and experiences with museum anthropology. AN publishes articles on a series of themes each year, each offering a range of possibilities for connecting with and thinking about museum anthropology. You’re welcome to think broadly and creatively with the themes.
Here are the themes chosen for 2025:
Q1 – Migration – December 1 (publish by end of March)
Q2 – Signal/Noise – March 1 (publish by end of June)
Q3 – Invisibility – June 1 (publish by end of September)
Q4 – Fluidity – September 1 (publish by end of December)
Send a short descriptive pitch for your proposed piece to CMA Secretary, Lillia McEnaney at mcenaneylillia@gmail.com by the above shown for each theme. Authors will go through an editorial process with McEnaney before Anthropology News’ formal deadline, approximately 2 month afterward the initial submission.
