Save the Date | ArtTable’s Annual Leadership Series | The State of American Art

October 8 | 6:30 pm 8:30 pm

2016 Annual Leadership Series

Save the date for ArtTable’s 2026 Annual Leadership Series program!

The program will explore how “American art” is being defined, contested, and reimagined at a moment of profound cultural and political division. Through this lens, the program will examine the intersections of art, identity, power, and civic life—asking who shapes cultural narratives today, whose voices are amplified, and how institutions and the market are responding to a rapidly shifting national landscape.

To be notified when tickets go on sale, fill out this form.

About the Annual Leadership Series: This signature ArtTable program was initially launched in 2016, and since its inception, the series has fostered engaging conversations among prominent women and nonbinary professionals. It has provided a platform for these influential voices to discuss the most pressing and relevant topics within our industries.

ArtTable thanks The Armory Show and catering partner Cultivated for their generosity in welcoming us this year.

About The Armory Show: In 1994, four New York art dealers had the ambitious goal of creating a new art fair to support their artists and attract global attention. They succeeded. The result was a groundbreaking cultural moment that has become vital to the New York art market and beyond. While much has changed over the years, our ingenuity and ambition have not. The Armory Show is a galvanizing force in the art world and essential to New York’s cultural landscape.

Dallas, TX | After Hours Collections Storage Tour & Discussion with Anne Lenhart at the Meadows Museum

November 20, 2025 | 6:30 pm 7:30 pm

The Meadows Museum in Dallas, TX

We are excited to present an after hours collection storage tour and discussion at the Meadows Museum! Attendees will see and learn about the collections at the Meadow’s Museum, as well as hear how the Museum functions as a small University Art Museum that is funded by a foundation.

The core of the Meadows Museum’s collection was assembled by its founder, Algur H. Meadows. Mr. Meadows developed an interest in art over the course of several visits to Spain in the 1950s, when he spent long afternoons at the great Museo Nacional del Prado in Madrid. Mr. Meadows subsequently began to collect Spanish art and in 1962, after the passing of his wife, Virginia, he donated his original acquisitions as well as funds for a museum to house them at Southern Methodist University. Until his death in 1978, Mr. Meadows, with the careful guidance of founding director William B. Jordan, actively promoted the development of the Spanish art collection, which has grown to be one of the finest outside Spain. Ranging from early Renaissance examples to modern works by Pablo Picasso, Joan Miró, and Juan Gris, the majority of works of art in the collection were created during the Spanish Golden Age by Baroque artists such as Diego Velázquez, Bartolomé Esteban Murillo, and Jusepe de Ribera

This program will be lead by Anne Lenhart, Director of Collections and Exhibitions at the Meadows Museum.

Parking is available on site.

Program Admission:

  • General Admission – $25
  • ArtTable Members – $15
  • ArtTable Guests – $20

New York, NY & Virtual | ArtTable’s Annual Leadership Series | Art at Risk: Censorship and the Fight for Creative Freedom

September 25, 2025 | 6:00 pm 8:00 pm

ArtTable Annual Leadership Series | Art At Risk: Censorship and the Fight for Creative Freedom

In today’s increasingly polarized cultural and political landscape, arts professionals are grappling with urgent questions: How do institutions remain true to their missions while navigating the risks of presenting complex or controversial narratives? What role does censorship play in shaping the stories we tell through exhibitions, acquisitions, publications, and programming?

ArtTable’s 2025 Annual Leadership Series returns with a timely conversation on the evolving responsibilities of arts institutions in an era of heightened scrutiny and constrained freedoms. This year’s panel features acclaimed artist Marilyn Minter, cultural leader and curator Sara Reisman, and art lawyer Katherine Wilson-Milne, in conversation with moderator Elizabeth Larison, Arts and Culture Advocacy Program Director at National Coalition Against Censorship. Scroll down to learn more about our panelists!

Together, these thought leaders will explore the challenges and strategies involved in sustaining truthful, inclusive storytelling across all areas of the arts ecosystem. From debates over funding and institutional values to efforts to protect curatorial independence and artistic freedom, the discussion will offer insights for anyone invested in the future of the arts.

Whether you work in a museum, manage a gallery, support artists through legal or philanthropic means, or collect and preserve art, this event offers critical perspectives and practical strategies for navigating today’s cultural crossroads.

Join us on September 25, 2025, for this vital dialogue and an opportunity to engage with leading voices at the intersection of art and public discourse. Immediately following the panel, we invite you to stay for a 40-minute in-person networking reception with light refreshments. This reception is a rare chance to continue the conversation with our esteemed panelists, ask follow-up questions, and build meaningful connections with fellow attendees across the arts industry.

About the Annual Leadership Series: This signature ArtTable program was initially launched in 2016, and since its inception, the series has fostered engaging conversations among prominent women and nonbinary professionals. It has provided a platform for these influential voices to discuss the most pressing and relevant topics within our industries.

Program Admission: This program is open to ArtTable members and member guests through September 1. If space allows, this program will open to the public on September 2.
