The American Academy’s fall 2025 program begins in mid-September and runs until mid-December and is teeming with a wide range of lectures, readings, workshops, and panel discussions by our residential fellows and Distinguished Visitors. Topics range from the future of European security to the history of US investment, from Yiddish pulp fiction to the fate of the Democratic Party, from the erosion of the rules of war to the demise of Greenland’s glaciers, among much more, including readings by some of America’s most celebrated novelists. Please be sure to register for events online, where most of our events will also be livestreamed. However you choose to attend Academy events this fall, we look forward to welcoming you!
