About Us

The Carriage Association of America (CAA) was founded in 1960 and is the oldest and largest international organization devoted to the preservation and restoration of horse-drawn carriages and sleighs. We have introduced thousands of people to the wonders of collecting these vehicles and the pleasures of driving them. We help our members discover the beauty and charm of a life-style that has all but vanished from our modern world.

The Founding Members of the CAA had a bold dream, believing that there were many fellow carriage enthusiasts in the nation, and knowing that, if they were brought together, the shared knowledge would benefit us all. The Mission Statement drawn up by these founders has remained the strong backbone of the organization ever since.

THE CARRIAGE JOURNAL, our official publication, has been distributed to our members without interruption for more than 40 years. Published five times a year, it contains informative articles about a wide range of subjects: driving, harnessing, restoration, preservation, history, and news about meetings, clinics and shows.

THE JOURNAL also introduces its readers to many of our members and their collections, and visits some of the great museums around the world. Membership Benefits abound. To name just a few of many, we sponsor special conferences, driving meets and overseas tours - where members rub shoulders with some of the world's leading carriage experts

Annual conferences are held in a variety of locations, with seminars, drives, hands-on demonstrations, banquets and restoration competitions. These conferences are always well attended and enjoyable.
