Abstract

This collection houses financial reports and meeting minutes documenting the activities of the Southeastern College Art Conference (SECAC) from 1992 to 2008.

Biographical/Historical Note

The Southeastern College Art Conference evolved out of the Southeastern Arts Association. According to a speech given at the SECAC banquet on October 15, 1982, between 1939 and 1942 College Art Association Directors, art professors, art historians, and artists discussed holding a regional conference to exchange views and share common concerns and to separate from the Southeastern Arts Association, which had until then encompassed college art associations in the region. Their visions were put on hold with the outbreak of war and did not come to fruition until the 1948 meeting of the Southeastern Arts Association in Columbia when the name Southeastern College Art Conference was chosen. Their 1968 constitution states that SECAC aims to "promote art in higher education through facilitating cooperation and administrators in universities and colleges, professional art schools and museums who are concerned with the development of art schools and museums who are concerned with the development of art in their respective institutions and the community served by their institutions..."
