MAPACA is an inclusive professional organization dedicated to the study of
popular and American culture in all their multi-disciplinary
manifestations. The association is comprised of college and university
faculty, independent scholars and artists, and graduate and undergraduate
students. It is a regional division of the Popular Culture and American
Culture Association <http://pcaaca.org/>, which, in the words of Popular
Culture Association founder Ray Browne, is a “multi-disciplinary
association interested in new approaches to the expressions, mass media and
all other phenomena of everyday life.”
