The Arts of China Consortium (ACC) was founded in 2002 to promote the study and understanding of Chinese art history, archaeology, and visual and material culture, and to support the research and professional activities of its members. To encourage more informal dialogue among members, ACC conducts an e-mail listserv and maintains this website to provide information on graduate programs in Asian art, lectures/symposia/conferences, grants/fellowships, positions available, and web links to facilitate research and pedagogy. In keeping with the broad range of members' research and pedagogical practice, posted entries relate to the visual and material culture within the historical boundaries of China and Japan.

We welcome faculty and graduate students in art history and related fields, museum professionals, independent scholars, and serious collectors worldwide to become members of ACC. Please contact Kathleen Ryor to request membership and enrolment in the e-mail listserv. To contribute news of upcoming events in your area and to suggest improvements to this site, send an e-mail message to Nixi Cura.

ACC is currently working towards gaining affiliation with the College Art Association and the Association for Asian Studies, where ACC hopes to organize annual thematic panel sessions. This site is a component of the Asian Studies WWW Virtual Library and the East Asia WWW Virtual Library.
