Those wanting a large multi-day scholarly meeting would get less from it, because it is a short micro conference, though it has run for 30 years.
Attendees at small academic and museum history events usually wear casual or business casual clothing, with academics in jackets or sweaters, which suits a Texas museum in mid October.
