Salmagundi Club

Salmagundi Club Welcome to The Salmagundi Club Founded in 1871, the Salmagundi Club is one of the oldest arts organizations in the United States. Housed in an historic brownstone in Greenwich Village, New York, the Club offers programs including art classes, exhibitions, painting demonstrations and art auctions throughout the year for members and the general public.

The Salmagundi facilities include three galleries, a library, parlor, a restaurant and a bar with billiards tables. All facilities are available for special events and private rentals. The Club owns a collection of over 1,500 works of representational art spanning two decades and has a membership of over 850 artists and patrons. Its members have included important American artists such as Thomas Moran, William Merritt Chase, ‘William Comfort Tiffany, N.C. Wyeth and Childe Hassam. The Salmagundi Club is a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit organization.

Mission: Following a tradition of 139 years, the Salmagundi Club continues to serve as a center for fine artists - providing exhibitions of paintings, sculpture and photography, conducting art classes and painting demonstrations and art auctions throughout the year. All this is done in an atmosphere of conviviality that encourages discussions on art and other topics and leads to lasting friendships among both artists members and patrons. While members are mainly residents of the Tri-State area, Salmagundian's are to be found in all corners of the globe. Tel: 212-255-7740

Hi guys, in case you haven't heard. The Jr. & Scholarship members will be interviewing Richard Rosenblatt on Nov. 6th at 6pm ET via ZOOM to discuss how exactly does the art committee pick out artworks for exhibitions. I'm sure you'll have wonder at one point or another why a certain piece of your art didn't get selected, and/or what dark magic is really involved. Richard has graciously agreed to explain the inner working of the selection and voting processes, and the talk will be followed by 10-15 min Q&A. This is your chance to ask your burning questions! To sign up: http://www.salmagundi.org/content.cfm/salmagundi/Behind-the-Scenes/id/546

It has always been a dream to have one of my paintings hang in the Salmagundi Art Club in NY. This year I got in the Allied Artists of America Show, but alas, the show will not hang but only be an online show because of COVID. The show opens on August 29, 2020. Oh well, I am thrilled anyway.
