Housework represents an intersection of labor and the unseen care and repetition we execute to attend to our personal spaces. It sustains us and oftentimes is a reflection of our current state of mind. While the tasks of upkeeping a household may be treated as an ordinary routine, the efforts exercised to keep an environment fully functional are nothing short of laborious and essential.⁠
⁠
Some of the artists in our Working exhibition have taken the liberty to portray domestic environments as sites of work and are showcasing the people who meet the demands of time and energy it takes to provide quality maintenance.⁠
⁠
Our Working exhibition will be exhibiting through October 23rd, come see the various interpretations our artists have presented and be in good company.⁠

📅 Meet the architectural survivors of 18th century Manhattan on Tue, Oct 20 at 6PM.⁠
⁠
The number of pre- and post- Revolutionary structures surviving in "The City That’s Never Finished" keeps growing. From a grand country mansion, to a farmhouse, taverns, townhouses, churches, and the earliest park in New York City, discover remnants of early New-York from one tip of Manhattan to the other.

Enjoy a virtual tour from the comfort of the Salmagundi Club to these landmarks – some of national importance, some unknown, scattered all over Manhattan Island. This talk will be led by award-winning videographer, musician, author, and architectural historian, Anthony Bellov.

The first strike of the gavel draws near! We will be holding the first session of our Fall Benefit Auction this Thursday evening on Oct 15 at 7:30 PM, featuring lots # 1 - 71.⁠

⁠🎨 Here, the artists bring the city to life but not through typical landmarks or tourist views. We see into residential neighborhoods and the streets as people commute and work through snow or shine.⁠ These are scenes from the very city our art club has called home since 1871, a home that our auction works to sustain.

Food service has cemented itself as a major staple in our culture, especially here in New York City. It exists as a cross section between labor and hospitality. The act of cooking, preparing, and serving a meal is a ritual many of us resonate with. These works go beyond familiar feelings to infer what the actions, mindset, and identity of each subject may be beyond the workspace.

In our current Working exhibition, many artists have portrayed their perspective of experiences within the food service industry and its social ecosystem. These works will be on display in our Rockwell gallery until October 23rd.

📅 Join us for a talk tomorrow evening at Tue, Oct 6 at 6:PM⁠!⁠
⁠
In the ancient Mediterranean world, the Egyptians had a reputation for excelling in divination, the art of gaining knowledge about the future via occult channels. Many types of divination were practiced in ancient Egypt, primarily by temple priests who consulted specific handbooks for this purpose. One particularly popular technique was that of oneiromancy, that is, dream interpretation.⁠
⁠
This talk by Dr Luigi Prada (Associate Professor of Egyptology at Uppsala University, Sweden) will introduce the audience to new research on ancient Egyptian oneiromancy, discussing in detail the workings of the many dream interpretation manuals preserved on papyri and what light they shed on our knowledge of the ancient Egyptian mind.⁠

📅 Fri, Oct 9 at 6:PM⁠
Hilary Pierce (lecturer, curator, and scholar, President of Art Collectors’ Athenaeum) will explore the artists, writers, musicians, and social reformers whose friendships, collaborations, and shared ideals helped shape modern American culture.

Through photographs, artworks, archival materials, and historical narratives, the lecture reveals how the Catskills served as a creative refuge from the pressures of urban life and the constraints of conventional social expectations.

More than a picturesque retreat, the Catskills became a vibrant center of intellectual and artistic exchange where notable individuals gathered to live, create, and think more freely. Their achievements fostered new ideas and aesthetics, as well as a legacy demonstrating that America’s creative class can indeed thrive in the face of rapid technological change.
