All-New Fall Chelsea Art Gallery Walk

Sat, Oct 3, 3:00 PM

From NYC Art Gallery Tours Meetup Group

5.0

I hope you are having a wonderful Summer so far. Please join us for the first art gallery MeetUp walk of this Fall on 10/03/26 at 11 AM. Chelsea is about to have dozens of openings starting on September 10th. This walk includes new solo shows by international artists, including painting, sculpture, photography, and more as available. Join us as we explore a fantastic museum-quality show of sculptures and others works by Lynda Benglis, spanning five decades of her career. Benglis broke new ground in 1968 by pouring latex on the floor of her studio, essentially blurring the lines between painting and sculpture. At Gagosian, we will explore a superb Brice Marden retrospective, including works on loan from major institutions. We will explore why Marden is viewed as a highly influential abstract artist whose work is Minimalist yet deeply humanistic. Please note $35 early bird pricing up to 2 weeks prior to the walk.

Inside the Armory Show: Private Tour + Rooftop Brunch (Members Only)

On **Saturday, September 26**, [Art-full Members](https://www.womenofculture.org/artfull-membership?utm_source=luma) are invited to join us for a curated look at one of the biggest and most exciting events on New York City’s fall art calendar! **[Advance Purchase Required here](https://luma.com/Thearmoryshow)** **[The Armory Show](https://www.thearmoryshow.com/?utm_source=luma)** is New York’s flagship international fair for modern and contemporary art, bringing approximately **230 galleries from more than 30 countries** together under one roof for just four days. The fair offers an exhilarating snapshot of the artists, galleries, ideas, and movements shaping the contemporary art world—but with so much to see, it can also feel overwhelming to navigate alone. Instead, we’ll experience the fair **together**, exploring a curated selection of standout booths, solo presentations, emerging galleries, and large-scale installations while discussing the artists and trends generating conversation across the art world. The 2026 edition places a special emphasis on artistic perspectives from **the Caribbean and its diasporas**, alongside an expanded selection of emerging galleries, individual artist presentations, and work from across the Americas and beyond. Before entering the fair, we’ll get to know one another over a rooftop brunch at the beautiful **[Electric Lemon](https://electriclemonnyc.com/?utm_source=luma)** on the 24th floor of the Equinox Hotel with sweeping views of Manhattan. **This event is for you if you’re interested in:** * Discovering established and emerging contemporary artists from around the world * Learning more about the art market in an approachable, engaging setting * Exploring a major international art fair without having to navigate it alone * Sharing culinary delights and meaningful conversation with other culture-loving women This intimate experience is available to only **10 Art-full members** and is expected to sell out, so reserve your place early! **Please note:** * All tickets include admission to The Armory Show and our curated walk-through. * Full Experience tickets also include one brunch entrée, one non-alcoholic beverage, tax, and gratuity at Electric Lemon. * Alcohol and any additional food or beverages must be purchased separately on-site. ——— **Full Event Schedule** **11:30 AM \| Rooftop Brunch at Electric Lemon** Equinox Hotel \| 33 Hudson Yards\, 24th Floor **1:15 PM \| Meet at The Armory Show if not attending brunch** Javits Center \| 429 11th Avenue **1:30 PM \| Curated Armory Show Walk\-Through** **2:30 PM \| Optional Regrouping at the Fair’s Champagne Bar** Continue exploring independently or reconnect with the group for further conversation. ——— **[Advance Purchase Required here](https://luma.com/Thearmoryshow)** **Art-full Member Tickets** **Fair Admission + Curated Walk-Through:** $110 first release; $115 full price **Full Experience with Brunch:** $150 first release; $155 full price *Full Experience tickets include **one brunch entrée**, tax/tip, and gratuity.* *All additional food and beverages must be purchased separately on-site.* ***Premier Members save an additional 20%!*** Learn more about Art-full Membership and become a member [here](https://www.womenofculture.org/artfull-membership?utm_source=luma). ——— ## More About The Armory Show A cornerstone of New York’s cultural landscape since its founding in 1994, The Armory Show brings leading international modern and contemporary art galleries to the Javits Center each year. Taking place **September 24–27, 2026**, this year’s edition features approximately 230 galleries from more than 30 countries, with expanded opportunities to discover emerging galleries and solo artist presentations. The fair’s curated **Focus** section will spotlight artists working across the Caribbean and its diasporas, while **Platform** will bring large-scale installations into the fair. Together with its international gallery presentations, nonprofit participants, public programs, and institutional partnerships, the fair offers a dynamic look at the conversations shaping contemporary art today. **Note about tickets/ RSVP's:** * RSVPs on Meetup do NOT count as official registrations for this event, and the RSVP count on Meetup may not reflect the actual number of attendees. To attend, you must purchase a ticket, which guarantees your spot, regardless of whether you RSVP here. * All paid and confirmed attendees will receive an email from [[alex@womenofculture.org](mailto:alex@womenofculture.org)] ([mailto:alex@womenofculture.org](http://mailto:alex@womenofculture.org/))] 1–2 days before the event with further details, including a link to a WhatsApp group for important updates.

Art Crawl in JC 🎨🖼️

Sat, Sep 19, 4:00 PM

From JC Artsy Women (40+) 🎨🌈

Hi everyone! One of my biggest passions in life is art and its history. I love sharing my own artistic knowledge as well as learning new perspectives of it from fellow art lovers. I would like to try to execute a small art crawl on Saturday. There are a sprinkling of art galleries in Jersey City we can go to that are normally open from 11 am to 6 pm. Here are the galleries I found that are walking distance: Edit: I updated the third one, the previous gallery is permanently closed. For this event, we can just do 2 or 3 galleries depending on weather and mood! Novado Gallery - 110 Morgan St Deep Space Gallery-77 Cornelison Ave IMUR Gallery - 67 Greene St If you’re up for it, there is one a bit further out in Journal Square, SMUSH Gallery- 340 Summit Ave Of course, we can also pop into a coffee shop or bar for refreshments. See you soon 😎

Chelsea Afternoon (New York Day Trip)

Sat, Sep 26, 5:00 PM

From Philadelphia Art Appreciation Meetup Group

4.8

I think a case can be made that the Chelsea area of Manhattan contains more galleries than anywhere else in the universe. (I'm making an assumption here that other intelligent life somewhere out there doesn't have "art" and "galleries" as we know them. :)) Whether or not the above is true, let's at least make a dent in the huge number of galleries in this neighborhood by starting in the middle and heading south. I'll work up a detailed and specific itinerary within the coming weeks, but let's say straight off that we'll meet at 1:00 at Jim Kempner Fine Art, a gallery on the Northwest corner of 23rd Street and 10th Avenue that is pretty much impossible to miss because looks like a multi-level contemporary house: https://www.jimkempnerfineart.com/ The first thing you encounter upon walking in is the sculpture garden: https://www.alamy.com/stock-photo-new-york-city-ny-usa-modern-architecture-art-jim-kempner-fine-art-50949706.html https://www.vaadia.com/exhibitions/jimkempner_2011.shtml So let's meet there unless it's raining or really hot, in which case, let's just go inside and meet on the first floor. Other places I'd like to include in the day's outing are Little Island, Pier 57, the Highline (which the photo in this posting is taken from), and, if people are really interested, Hudson Yards. I will probably be sticking around to attend the Brooklyn Book Festival the next day and can help people get to trains and busses if that's wanted or needed. :) More to come!

🎨 LET’S GO — GUGGENHEIM POP: 1960 TO NOW!

Sat, Sep 26, 5:00 PM

From New York City Art, Film, Museum, Social Club

4.8

# 🎨 LET’S GO — GUGGENHEIM POP: 1960 TO NOW! ## A SPECIAL PRIVATE GUIDED TOUR + THE BRAND-NEW TARYN SIMON EXHIBITION 🗓 **Saturday\, September 26\, 2026 \| 1:00 PM** 📍 **Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum** 1071 Fifth Avenue New York, NY 10128 👥 **LIMITED PRIVATE GROUP EVENT** 💵 **SPECIAL SOCIAL CLUB PRICE: ONLY $25 PER PERSON** **Includes Museum Admission AND our Private One-Hour Guided Tour!** *** ## ✨ A VERY SPECIAL AFTERNOON AT THE GUGGENHEIM Join us for a wonderful Saturday afternoon at one of New York City's most iconic cultural institutions as our Social Club returns to the **Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum** for a completely new experience! And this time, we're doing something special. I have arranged a **private one-hour guided tour exclusively for our Social Club**, led by one of the Guggenheim's Museum Educators, focusing on the exciting exhibition: # 🎨 GUGGENHEIM POP: 1960 TO NOW Following our private guided experience, our afternoon will continue with a **self-guided exploration of the Guggenheim's brand-new Taryn Simon exhibition**, which will have opened only eight days before our visit! So this is essentially **two completely different museum experiences in one afternoon**. This is Pop Art—but not simply a retrospective. *Guggenheim Pop: 1960 to Now* traces the explosive emergence of Pop in the early 1960s and follows its influence all the way into contemporary art. Advertising. Comic strips. Consumer products. Movies. Mass media. Celebrity. Everyday objects. Artists took imagery that surrounded ordinary people and completely transformed the boundaries between popular culture and fine art. And we're talking about some **very recognizable names**: 🎨 **Andy Warhol** 🎨 **Roy Lichtenstein** 🎨 **Yayoi Kusama** 🎨 **Claes Oldenburg & Coosje van Bruggen** 🎨 **Richard Hamilton** 🎨 **Jim Dine** ...alongside contemporary artists who continue to reinterpret Pop's influence today. The exhibition also tells an important Guggenheim story. In 1963, curator Lawrence Alloway organized *Six Painters and the Object* at the Guggenheim—the **first museum presentation of Pop Art in New York**. More than six decades later, this exhibition looks at where Pop began and what became of its legacy. *** ## ⭐ SOME VERY SPECIAL HIGHLIGHTS There are several works here that make this exhibition particularly interesting. 🍌 **Maurizio Cattelan's *Comedian*** — yes, THAT artwork: the banana attached to the wall. 🏸 **Claes Oldenburg and Coosje van Bruggen's *Soft Shuttlecock*** — being shown in New York for the first time in 25 years. ✨ And **Yayoi Kusama's *INFINITY MIRRORED ROOM – DANCING LIGHTS THAT FLEW UP TO THE UNIVERSE***, a major loan to the exhibition. Having a Guggenheim Museum Educator guide us through this for an hour should make an enormous difference. Rather than simply looking at the works, we'll be able to understand **why they mattered, what the artists were responding to, and how Pop changed modern art.** # 🌀 AND THEN — SOMETHING COMPLETELY NEW! ## TARYN SIMON — A BRAND-NEW GUGGENHEIM EXHIBITION After our private Pop tour concludes, we're not finished! We'll continue on our own through the Guggenheim's **brand-new major exhibition by Taryn Simon**, opening September 18—just eight days before we arrive. And this one sounds fascinating. Simon is known for using photography and storytelling to examine the hidden systems, unseen forces and narratives that shape the world around us. For this major Guggenheim exhibition, she has created an entirely **new body of work** incorporating: 📷 Never-before-seen photographs 🎥 Video 📝 Text 🗿 Sculpture 🌀 Interactive installation And here's what makes it particularly appropriate for the Guggenheim: **The exhibition fills the entire Rotunda.** Rather than following one predetermined route, visitors will be able to choose their own pathways through a huge constellation of imagery and ideas spiraling through Frank Lloyd Wright's extraordinary building. It should be a completely different experience from the Pop exhibition—and because it will have opened only days earlier, **we'll be among its earliest visitors.** *** ## 🏛️ AND, OF COURSE...THIS IS THE GUGGENHEIM The art is only part of the experience. Frank Lloyd Wright's extraordinary spiral building is itself one of the great works of 20th-century architecture and part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Even walking through the Guggenheim is unlike visiting virtually any other museum. And for anyone who wants to remain after our two featured exhibitions, your admission provides an opportunity to continue exploring the Museum—including the ongoing **Thannhauser Collection**, with Impressionist, Post-Impressionist and modern French masterpieces including works by **Degas, Manet and Van Gogh**. *** # ⏰ OUR AFTERNOON **12:45 PM — Please arrive by no later than 12:45pm.** **1:00 PM — Our Private Guggenheim Museum Educator Tour Begins** 🎨 *Guggenheim Pop: 1960 to Now* Approximately **1 hour** **Approximately 2:00 PM — Taryn Simon** 🌀 We'll continue together into the newly opened exhibition for a self-guided exploration. Afterward, members are welcome to remain at the Guggenheim and continue exploring the Museum at their own pace. *** # 💵 AN EXCEPTIONAL SOCIAL CLUB PRICE — ONLY $25! I am especially pleased with the pricing I was able to arrange for our group. Our special Social Club price is: ## **ONLY $25 PER PERSON** And that includes: **✓ Guggenheim Museum admission** **✓ Our exclusive private one-hour guided tour** **✓ Museum Educator** **✓ Guggenheim Pop: 1960 to Now** **✓ Taryn Simon exhibition afterward** **✓ Access to the Museum's other available galleries** This is an outstanding value for a private guided experience at the Guggenheim. PLEASE NOTE: REFUNDS WILL ONLY BE MADE IF THE EVENT IS CANCELED. *** # 🌟 THIS SHOULD BE A GREAT ONE! **Warhol. Lichtenstein. Kusama. Pop Art.** A **private one-hour Guggenheim tour exclusively for our Social Club.** Then an entirely different experience inside a **brand-new exhibition filling Frank Lloyd Wright's famous Rotunda.** And all of it for **only $25 per member.** I think we have the makings of a really special Saturday afternoon. **Space will be limited, so please RSVP early!** I look forward to seeing everyone at the Guggenheim! 🎨🌀😊

## **Private Docent-Led Tour of Two Special Exhibitions** 🗓 **Monday\, September 14\, 2026 \| 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM** 📍 **The Grolier Club** 47 East 60th Street, New York, NY 10022 👥 **Limited to 20 Members** 💵 **Admission and Tour: Free** ## ✨ A Rare Visit to One of New York City’s Most Distinguished Cultural Institutions Join us for a very special private group visit to **The Grolier Club**, one of New York City’s most fascinating institutions devoted to books, printing, illustration, collecting, and the graphic arts. Although located in the heart of Manhattan, the Grolier Club remains unfamiliar to many New Yorkers. Its thoughtfully curated exhibitions explore the history, artistry, cultural importance, and enduring influence of books and printed materials. For our visit, the Club has graciously arranged a **private docent-led tour of both exhibitions currently on view**. ## 📖 Our Private Docent-Led Tour Our group will be led by a knowledgeable Grolier Club docent who will guide us through both exhibitions and explain their major themes, featured objects, historical background, and cultural significance. The guided portion of our visit will last approximately one hour. Afterward, members will have additional time to return to the displays, examine favorite objects more closely, read the exhibition materials, and continue exploring independently. ## 🖼️ Two Exhibitions in One Visit Our private tour will include both exhibitions presented within the Grolier Club’s galleries. The individual exhibition titles and complete details will be added as soon as they are formally confirmed by the Club. Members can expect a richly presented experience involving rare books, manuscripts, illustrations, printed works, historical documents, and other exceptional objects connected with the art and history of the book. ## ⏰ Event Schedule **10:45 AM** — Meet outside or near the entrance **11:00 AM – 12:00 PM** — Private docent-led tour of both exhibitions **12:00 PM – 1:00 PM** — Additional independent viewing time Members may continue exploring until they are ready to leave. ## 💵 Cost **There is no charge for this event.** The Grolier Club is generously providing our group with complimentary admission and a private docent-led tour. ## 👥 Attendance Limit This event is strictly limited to **20 members**. Because the Club is arranging a docent specifically for us, please RSVP only if you are reasonably certain that you can attend. ## 🌟 Why This Event Is Special This is an opportunity to visit a remarkable New York institution that many people have never experienced, while enjoying expert guidance through two specially curated exhibitions. The event combines art, literature, history, design, collecting, and visual culture in an elegant and intimate setting. Join us for a fascinating morning of discovery at one of New York City’s true hidden cultural treasures.

Chelsea Afternoon (New York Day Trip with the Art Appreciation Group)

Sat, Sep 26, 5:00 PM

From Philadelphia Old and New in Town Meetup Group

I think a case can be made that the Chelsea area of Manhattan contains more galleries than anywhere else in the universe. (I'm making an assumption here that other intelligent life somewhere out there doesn't have "art" and "galleries" as we know them. :)) Whether or not the above is true, let's at least make a dent in the huge number of galleries in this neighborhood by starting in the middle and heading south. I'll work up a detailed and specific itinerary within the coming weeks, but let's say straight off that we'll meet at 1:00 at Jim Kempner Fine Art, a gallery on the Northwest corner of 23rd Street and 10th Avenue that is pretty much impossible to miss because looks like a multi-level contemporary house: [https://www.jimkempnerfineart.com/](https://www.jimkempnerfineart.com/) The first thing you encounter upon walking in is the sculpture garden: [https://www.alamy.com/stock-photo-new-york-city-ny-usa-modern-architecture-art-jim-kempner-fine-art-50949706.html](https://www.alamy.com/stock-photo-new-york-city-ny-usa-modern-architecture-art-jim-kempner-fine-art-50949706.html) [https://www.vaadia.com/exhibitions/jimkempner_2011.shtml](https://www.vaadia.com/exhibitions/jimkempner_2011.shtml) So let's meet there unless it's raining or really hot, in which case, let's just go inside and meet on the first floor. Other places I'd like to include in the day's outing are Little Island, Pier 57, the Highline (which the photo in this posting is taken from), and, if people are really interested, Hudson Yards. I will probably be sticking around to attend the Brooklyn Book Festival the next day and can help people get to trains and busses if that's wanted or needed. :) More to come!
