The Academy Art Museum presents a dynamic three-part series celebrating the lives and legacies of women artists who helped shape the New York art scene.

Across three evenings, audiences will experience archival short films and insightful conversations with Loretta Howard, co-founder of On This Spot. Through vivid biographical storytelling, Howard will illuminate the resilience, creativity, and influence of women artists represented in the Museum’s collection—including Martha Diamond, Nancy Graves, Grace Hartigan, Kiki Smith, Pat Steir, and Susan Weil—while also bringing forward the untold stories of many others who transformed modern art.

Perfect for art lovers, history enthusiasts, and anyone inspired by powerful stories of women who shaped modern art.

Please join us for the final evening of this lecture series, this Thursday, October 30th at 5:30pm – Pay the door $15 (members) / $20 (non-members)
