Upper Category Member Events
Each year, the Upper Category Committee brings together a roster of special events for SAA members in the Contributor, Donor and Sponsor levels.
If you are not yet an Upper Category member, we invite your participation. Please contact the SAA Office Manager to upgrade your membership, or join as an Upper Category member. We also hope to bring back our popular in-home conversations and collection viewing offerings in the spring as the pandemic comes under control.
