Private Gallery Night: The Women Who Shaped American Art

​What if the story of American art were told through **the women who helped create it?** **[Advance Purchase Required here](https://luma.com/TheWomenWhoShapedAmericanArt)** ​Join Women of Culture for a **private reception & walk-through at Lincoln Glenn Gallery** exploring ***[250 Years: American Women Artists and the Nation’s Story](https://www.lincolnglenn.com/exhibitions/48-250-years-american-women-artists-and-the-nation-s/overview/?utm_source=luma)*** — an exhibition that brings overlooked voices back into the spotlight and invites us to see American history from a different perspective. ​Spanning the Revolutionary era through today, the exhibition brings together work from **every decade of the nation’s history**, revealing generations of women who created, experimented, and built remarkable careers even when the art world offered them far fewer opportunities for recognition. ​We’ll travel through **250 years of creativity** — from intimate early portraits and sweeping landscapes to Impressionism, Modernism, abstraction, sculpture, and contemporary art — encountering both familiar names and fascinating artists whose stories deserve to be rediscovered. ​Among them are **Mary Cassatt, Sarah Miriam Peale, Ida Ten Eyck O’Keeffe, Mercedes Matter, Lee Bontecou, Harmony Hammond, Lynda Benglis, Teruko Yokoi**, and many more. ​Over the course of the evening, we’ll have the chance to slow down with the work, exchange perspectives, and connect with fellow culturally curious women in the intimate setting of the gallery. ​Come raise a glass to the women who created, challenged, experimented — and left their mark on American art, whether history remembered their names or not. ​**Event details:** ​**Date:** Thursday, October 22 **Time**: 6:00–8:00 PM **Location:** Lincoln Glenn Gallery Upper East Side [17 East 67th Street, Suite 1A](https://www.google.com/maps/place/Lincoln+Glenn/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x0:0xdfaf0e87db2329b2?sa=X&ved=1t%3A2428&ictx=111&utm_source=luma) *** **[Advance Purchase Required here](https://luma.com/TheWomenWhoShapedAmericanArt)** ​**Tickets:** * ​**Non-Members:** $10 First Release \| $15 Full Price * ​**Art-full Basic Members:** $5 First Release \| $10 Full Price * ​**Art-full Premier Members:** FREE ​Art-full premier members receive an additional 20% off. ​Learn more about the Art-full membership below/[here](https://womenofculture.org/artfull-membership-nyc?utm_source=luma). *** ​**The Art-Full Membership** ​If you are not yet an [Art-full member](https://womenofculture.org/artfull-membership-nyc?utm_source=luma), we would love to have you join us for as little as $45/month for the basic membership, or $65/month for the upgraded premier membership.

Meet in the Arts

[Which art style are you? Vote and see who shares your lane.](https://app.favr.town/polls/s_378XeL85R4csGQ?r=@lovemaze) Our preferences in art reveal more about us than we often realize. Long before personality traits were formally categorized, psychologists studied personality differences through individuals' ratings of various paintings. If you find yourself drawn to the same piece of artwork, there's a strong chance you share a deep connection. Meet in the museum for an excursion. Sign up on [favr.town](https://favr.town/) and predict your next art buddy before you meet. Find out if you're right when you meet onsite. Or, if you fancy other museums, pin them at times that work for you on [favr.town](https://favr.town/) and discover who you might meet there. Note: This is a [Favr.town](http://favr.town/) member exclusive event. [Join](https://favr.town/events/meet-and-shop-trader-joes-trader-joes-2026-06-15-17-00) [[https://favr.town](https://favr.town/) ] Hint: Fans of abstract art tend to be creative, pop art lovers are often optimistic, impressionism enthusiasts are more likely to be conscientious, and those who prefer traditional art tend to be, well, more traditional. Something extra: Why do these traits matter? See how [optimism](https://favr.town/blog/the-power-of-optimism-in-relationships-how-a-positive-outlook-strengthens-resilience-emotional-health-and-lasting-love-2025-11-20), [conscientiousness](https://favr.town/blog/how-responsibility-and-reliability-build-trust-and-lasting-love-2026-04-19), [traditional values](https://favr.town/blog/prioritizing-family-values-for-lasting-commitment-and-love-2025-12-17), and [excitement](https://favr.town/blog/how-novelty-play-and-shared-adventure-keep-love-alive-2025-12-14) influence relationships. You can also measure how your sense of [optimism](https://app.favr.town/we?t=1&s=1&b=OPTIMISTIC), [conscientiousness](https://app.favr.town/we?t=1&s=2&b=CONSCIENTIOUS), [traditional values](https://app.favr.town/we?t=1&s=2&b=TRADITIONAL), and [excitement](https://app.favr.town/we?t=1&s=2&b=EXCITING) stack up against others.
