Established in 1981 at the University of Maryland, the Center for Renaissance & Baroque Studies (CRBS) fosters intellectual exchange between disciplines in the arts and humanities and allied fields.

As an independent unit within the College of Arts and Humanities, the Center serves the campus through an array of interdisciplinary programs including symposia, colloquia, and special lectures.

In addition, the Center publishes a journal and a volume series of conference proceedings, and proudly hosts the Attending to Early Modern Women symposium, which explores various aspects of the lives and artistic production of women in the Renaissance.

In keeping with the Center's commitment to ensuring access to the most up-to-date scholarship in the humanities, the Center's programs are open to the public.

The Center's director supervises a variety of outreach programs specifically designed for teachers and students in the state of Maryland.
