The Mormon History Association (MHA) is an independent, nonprofit organization dedicated to the study and understanding of all aspects of Mormon history. Founded in 1965, MHA promotes its goals through scholarly research, conferences, awards, and publications, including the Journal of Mormon History. It welcomes individuals from all religious affiliations, academic backgrounds, and locations around the world who are interested in exploring the Mormon past.
The 59th Annual Mormon History Association conference, scheduled for June 13-16, 2024 in Kirtland, Ohio, will focus on the theme of "Conversions, Aversion, and Reversion: Mormon Identity from Ohio to Utah." This interdisciplinary conference invites scholars to examine the ways in which Restorationists constructed their identity in relation to people, ideas, time, and space, particularly during the formative years of the Mormon tradition. The conference aims to foster conversations across disciplinary boundaries and explore the historical and cultural significance of Kirtland as the first headquarters of the Mormon tradition.
