ArtTable, the Association of Women Art Dealers (AWAD) and the Professional Organization for Women in the Arts (POWarts) invite you the first event of its kind...
These three professional networks for women in the art world are joining forces for a thought-provoking conversation to foster new ideas and generate opportunities with individuals across all three networks, not to mention collectors, curators, academics and special guests who champion gender parity.
Artnet journalist Sarah Cascone will facilitate a discussion with the leaders of the three organizations:
Jessica Porter (Executive Director, ArtTable)
Sara Kay (Founder, POWarts)
Susan J Mumford (Founder and CEO, Association of Women Art Dealers)
TICKETS
The panel will be accompanied by a Q&A followed by an open networking session.
Refreshments will be aplenty, to awaken and bolster conversation alike! Treats include coffee, tea, mimosas, quiche, bagels and croissants.
With gratitude...
The event takes place on the occasion of Art Miami's 30th edition, prompting us to look at the position of women in the industry when the fair began in 1989 (think: Guerrilla Girls era), comparing that to the reality today (post #metoo), and looking ahead to 2049.
Individuals of any gender are welcome to attend.
This exclusive, invite-only occasion has been made possible with much thanks to Yvel.
