Join us for the K-SAA MLA 2027 Awards Reception at Mother of Pearl in downtown Los Angeles—just across the street from the Convention Center!

The evening will include honoring our 2027 Distinguished Scholar Award Recipients—Michael Gamer, Saree Makdisi, and Maureen McLane—announcing our Pforzheimer Grant winners, and sharing the winner of the 2026 K-SAA Essay Prize.

The reception is open to all! We simply ask that you register.
