Conferences
Conferences addressed by prominent authors, critics and scholars are organised every second year. The first in 2001 was held at Powell's public school, Eton College. The second, in 2003, was hosted by Balliol College, Oxford, from which he graduated. The third at the Wallace Collection, London, the home of the painting from which Powell's masterwork derives its name, was held in December 2005 to coincide with a major exhibition to mark the centenary of his birth.
The Fourth Biennial Anthony Powell Conference was held on Saturday 8 September 2007 at the University of Bath, UK. The Fifth Conference was held in September 2009 in Washington, DC. The sixth conference is scheduled for September 2011 in the greater London area.
