Our Mission, Vision, and Values
Our mission is to enrich the study of and appreciation for the works of Keats, the Shelleys, and their contemporaries by cultivating a diverse community of artists, readers, scholars, students, teachers, and other audiences through inclusive scholarship and accessible public programming.
Our vision is that the works of Keats, the Shelleys, and their contemporaries will continue to inspire generations both within and outside of the academy.
We value a wider and deeper understanding of the works of Keats, the Shelleys, and their contemporaries; progressive, rigorous, and creative scholarship; public programming; inclusivity; diverse membership; accessibility; and an engaged community.

K-SAA is continuing their virtual events series with two talks by Sarah Marsh (Seton Hill University) and Imani Tucker (Yale University).
