It was held at the University of Washington, Seattle campus.
The published audience was scholars of Latin American and Latinx art.
It was most useful for art historians, graduate students and curators working on Latin American and Latinx art, since the conference was billed as drawing an international cohort of scholars and this edition focused on Afro-Asian-Native themes. Co-sponsorship by University of Washington programs and the Thoma Foundation suggested an academic setting; collectors, dealers or general art audiences seeking market or gallery content would have gotten less from it.
Attendees at academic art history conferences usually wear smart casual clothes, such as dark trousers, sweaters or blazers, with comfortable shoes for walking between campus buildings. Seattle in early October is typically cool and often rainy, so a rain jacket or umbrella was practical.
