Collecting Women Artists Isn’t Charity.
It’s Impact Investing.

No, we’re not a nonprofit, and here’s why: Collecting women artists isn’t about charity—it’s about changing the art world from the inside out. By investing in the work of women artists, you’re supporting a movement that values their contributions, talent, and influence as integral to our culture. 

When you choose to collect and support women artists, you’re making an impact that goes beyond financial support; you’re actively contributing to their visibility, their legacy, and their rightful place in art history.

Unlike traditional philanthropy, impact investing is about creating a sustainable shift. Every piece collected, every artist supported, helps reshape the market itself, showing that there’s demand and respect for women’s work. If the mainstream art market doesn’t pay attention to women artists, we will create a community that does—and that influence will be felt for generations.

Building an Equitable Art Community

  • MATRONAGE SALONS

    Our quarterly Matronage Salons are conversations with established collectors of women artist on how and why they choose to support women artists. With a focus on origin stories, these talks are meant to inspire the audience to do the same.

  • GALLERY TOURS & STUDIO VISITS

    Our more casual gallery walks, studio visits, and exhibition tours bring together Matrons of the Arts in Cornelia's tier or higher) to see art together in a supportive environment.

  • ZOOM SESSIONS WITH ART PROS

    Our monthly zoom sessions with art world professionals pull back the curtain on the inner workings of the art market. Matrons of the Arts in the Essential tier or higher can join and ask questions of each guest speaker.
