The AT CONNECT program series presents intimate online discussions open to members nationally across chapters. Originally designed to further encourage one-to-one networking amongst its members in DC, CONNECT transitioned to a virtual lunch hour conversation series designed to allow members to ask questions outside their day-to-day areas of expertise.
During this session we will hear from Naomi Baigell, Managing Director, Marketing and Client Relationships at Athena Art Finance. Naomi will give an introduction to art finance and art lending and will discuss Athena’s unique approach as a specialized, independent firm that provides financial solutions to private collectors, galleries, family trusts, and artist foundations and estates who want to access the value of the works of art they hold, but do not wish to sell them.
Naomi has 30+ years of experience in the art and finance industries and as a leader in identifying and crafting proactive business development opportunities. As Managing Director at Athena Art Finance, Naomi works with clients to develop art-secured loans and financial strategies, cultivates and maintains partnerships, and creates strategic business opportunities for Athena’s clients.
Prior to joining Athena, Naomi was Senior Vice President and Director of Global Corporate Art Services at Sotheby’s Auction House. Naomi earned her B.A. in Art History and Business from University of Massachusetts at Amherst and earned her appraisals certificate from NYU.
