ArtTable’s 2021 Annual Benefit
ArtTable’s 2021 Annual Benefit and Award Ceremony took place virtually on Friday, April 16, 2021. ArtTable members and supporters from around the world tuned in to celebrate our amazing honorees, ArtTable’s impactful work, and each other! We heard heartfelt messages from 2020 and 2021 Distinguished Service to the Visual Arts Awardees, Susan Unterberg and Barbara Tober; gained fresh perspectives from the 2020 New Leadership Awardees, Wassan Al-Khudhairi, Erin Christovale, Lauren Haynes, and Jami Powell as well as our 2021 New Leadership Awardee La Tanya S. Autry; welcomed special guests; and made new connections at the virtual networking event.
Our benefit was a wonderful culmination of our 40th Anniversary celebrations. After a year that taught us the value of supporting one another, it was an affirmation of the importance and power of the ArtTable community. If you weren’t able to attend, you can view selected content on ArtTable’s Youtube and social media channels.
ArtTable is a place for connection. ArtTable is supportive. ArtTable is a space for women to grow and collaborate. ArtTable is necessary, important, strong, and fearless. ArtTable is belonging. ArtTable is fun. ArtTable is a place where women always have a seat at the table.
