We gather annually to share, discuss, and explore practices, pedagogies, and studies within the multifarious subject areas of architecture, culture and spirituality.
Open sessions, scholarly presentations, and lively discussions. Free time, tours, and meditation. Our annual symposia are joyful events of shared passion for this field of study.
Enjoy our archive of Symposia content below by clicking on any year’s card.
Each year includes an archive of Published Works from ACSF Symposia (extended abstracts). Each symposium followed a strict peer-review process to select the best works from all the submissions received. The e-publication of the symposia proceedings represents ACSF’s commitment to the highest standards of scholarship in its subject areas.
You can also review videos of lectures, discussed topics, organizing committees, location details, and more.
The Architecture, Culture, and Spirituality Forum follows the First North American Serial Rights (FNASR) standard for accepted papers and presentations at ACSF symposia. The author/creator of the paper or presentation grants ACSF the right to be the first in North America to publish the material once (whether in electronic or print format) within one year of acceptance of the material by ACSF. After first publication, all copyright of the material then reverts back to the author/creator. For more, see: Writing-World.com
The following individuals have served at least once (but most often two or three times) as peer reviewers for the blind-peer evaluations of extended abstracts for ACSF Symposia (2009-2018). Thank you to all for your service to ACSF.
