Salon Series

Inspired by the intellectual gatherings of 17th-century France, the Salon Series offers faculty, researchers, and thought leaders a consistent forum to explore the evolving role of AI. Each month, participants will come together to engage in stimulating discussions, share perspectives, and identify opportunities for collaboration across disciplines. The series will feature salons centered on each of the 2026 FAIR Program themes, creating space for meaningful dialogue, new connections, and the exchange of ideas that advance both individual scholarship and the broader UVA community’s understanding of AI.
