The fifth biennial Oklahoma Archaeology Conference (OAC) will take place at the Thurman J. White Forum Building on the University of Oklahoma campus, March 5th - March 7th, 2026. 

As in the past, OAC will feature oral presentations and a dedicated poster session during which authors will staff their posters. Posters will remain publicly accessible for the duration of the conference. Undergraduate and graduate students may compete for prizes for best paper and poster.

The 2026 conference will also include workshops and vendors, and for the first time, a Cultural Resources Management (CRM) fair for students to meet the professional firms that are conducting work within the State of Oklahoma.
