Events
CANE Summer Institute
The Classical Association of New England Summer Institute brings together students, educators, and lifelong learners for an intensive week of lectures, mini-courses, reading groups, professional development workshops, and special events. Each institute considers the literature, history, and arts of the ancient Greeks and Romans — and how we engage with those cultures today.
Annual Meeting
CANE’s Annual Meeting is an opportunity to learn from and interact with colleagues from across New England and beyond. Spanning two days, the meeting allows educators from schools, colleges, and universities to gather, network, and socialize, while sharing best practices about teaching and learning, and presenting cutting edge research from many fields of the ancient world. The Annual Meeting is open to all CANE members.
Student Writing Contest
The CANE Writing Contest is an annual event open to students taking Latin, Greek, or Classics in New England middle and high schools. Prizes are awarded to top contenders on the state and regional level. Submissions are sent to the appropriate state representative for CANE.
