Local Meetings & Special Events

.

 

ICSA local meetings and special events are designed to give people an opportunity to meet experts in the cultic studies field and others who are interested in this field or are seeking information and/or assistance.

ICSA special events are conducted in various cities.  Special events may include talks by experts, discussions, videos, poetry readings, and other activities.  Usually, special events are 2-3 hours in length, although they are sometimes longer.

See the ICSA calendar for dates, locations, and details for upcoming special events. Go here for information and online registration.

As of May 2011, events have been held in London and New York.  Events in Los Angeles and other cities are planned. Scroll down to sign-up for announcement groups to make sure you are notified about future events.

ICSA local meetings are run by experts in the field. They address the different needs of our members and visitors through a structured but flexible format, which may include the following:

  • Brief update on recent news
  • Brief presentation or DVD on a topic of interest
  • Discussion about this topic
  • Breakouts for those with different interests/needs, if warranted
    • supportive discussion
    • topic discussion
    • planning discussion (for those interested in educating and helping others)
