HIG Annual Emerging Scholars Symposium on June 10 & June 17, 2022 This symposium, sponsored by the SAH Historic Interiors Affiliate Group (HIG), brought together Emerging Scholars and early-career professionals from across the globe to discuss digitality in relation to the study and practice of historic interiors. The shift to virtual work and learning in response to the COVID-19 pandemic has provoked lively debate among scholars and students about the benefits, and risks, of substituting digital platforms for built space.
