Travel Grants for the PCA 2027 Annual Conference

About this program

The Popular Culture Association’s Endowment Fund offers supplemental travel grants to support members presenting at the PCA 2027 Annual Conference. Applications are accepted from August 1 through November 15, 2026, with decisions announced by December 31, 2026. Applicants must maintain an active, paid PCA membership for 2026–2027, submit an approved presentation abstract, a 250-word thesis and scope statement, relevance and professional-goals statements, and an abbreviated CV. Each applicant may apply for only one travel grant, and proposals will be evaluated for scholarly quality, contributions to Popular Culture or American Culture studies, and alignment with professional goals.
