Contemporaries members

Contemporaries members are invited to an informal panel discussion on beginning a collection moderated by assistant curator and Contemporaries liaison Elisabeth Sherman. Special guests include prominent young collectors Anne Huntington and Mo Koyfman and art advisor Molly Epstein, who will share thoughts on how to start collecting, working within a budget, and cultivating relationships with artists, galleries, and dealers. Enjoy a drink while you hear firsthand about the joys and challenges of collecting and come away with a few practical tips.

Contemporaries Salons are a new series of engaging conversations with Whitney staff and art world insiders presenting unique perspectives in a casual and social environment. Refreshments will be provided during and after all discussions.

Open to Contemporaries members. Become a member or upgrade your membership, call (212) 570-3641.
