Regional Centers

The Academy's national headquarters is located in Cambridge, Massachusetts, at the House of the Academy. There are also two regional centers: the Western Center in Irvine, California, and the Midwest Center in Chicago, Illinois, established to encourage greater involvement of Fellows in Academy activities. The centers sponsor Stated Meetings, which give area members an opportunity to meet and share ideas with other Academy members across disciplines and institutions. They also offer greater opportunity for Fellows to consider developing Academy projects and programs. Workshops are frequently held at the regional centers on themes related to Academy projects.
