FAQ’s

  1. Do I have to be an Art-full member in order to attend an event?
    No, many of our experiences are open to non-members, however joining as an Art-full member is the best way to get the most out of the community, have access to all events and receive discounts and exclusive offers to private events at cultural institutions all over the city.

  2. This is my first Women of Culture event, what can I expect?

    Each of our experiences is carefully curated and thoughtfully organized with the intention of encouraging attendees from all walks of life to push their boundaries, discover new perspectives and more deeply understand themselves and the world around them — so they are better equipped to shape it.

  3. What if I don’t know anyone - can I attend alone?

    YES! Most people attend events alone and make new friends and acquaintances along the way. All events are designed to make solo attendees feel right at home and able to meet others.

  4. What if I don’t know anything about art and have no artistic talent?

    Then you’re in good company! No artistic talent, knowledge or experience is needed — we are all learning along the way. We simply request that you have an open heart, mind and desire to learn.

  5. Who is this event/community for?

    • Anyone 21+ with a genuine interest in learning about the arts & culture (most attendees are in their 30’s-60’s)

    • Anyone open to new ideas, perspectives and viewpoints different than their own

    • Anyone with an open heart & mind and an interest in connecting deeply with others

    • Note that all non-member exclusive events are gender-inclusive and open to all with an interest in the arts, community & creativity

    • The Art-full membership is designed for those who identify as women looking to be a part of a tribe of fellow intellectually-curious women with a creative soul

  6. Who is this event/community NOT for?

    • Anyone who is looking to proselytize, sell or promote their own beliefs, companies or ideas

    • Anyone who thinks ‘their friend card is full’ or isn’t truly interested in meeting new people

    • Anyone who lacks empathy or the ability to understand the viewpoints of others, no matter how different they may be from their own

  7. Why is the Art-full membership for women only?

    We believe there is a magic that can happen when you gather independent, intellectually-curious and creative women together with intention. Women have spent far too many years battling one another for a limited number of ‘seats at the table’, and we believe the only way to truly change this is for women to come together and support one another, fully and authentically. We don’t subscribe to the narrative that women are ‘catty’ or ‘too emotional’. Instead, we believe in creating a world where all people are encouraged to truly feel and express their emotions, rather than repress them, and that women must lead the way. Simply put, we believe that we are better and stronger, as individuals and as a society, when we come together in solidarity.

  8. Why sit-down dinners & brunches?

    In contrast to traditional networking events and cocktail parties, sitting and sharing a meal with someone allows for deeper conversations and connections. It’s almost impossible to sit next to someone for an entire meal and not find some sort of commonality with them. Conversations bubble up with the person next to you, across from you or at the other end of the table, but no matter what, you’ve had a shared experience that you will hopefully remember for years.

  9. I met someone really cool at an event, but we didn’t exchange contact info, how can I contact her?

    The best way is to join as an Art-full member in order to have access to all the amazing women who are official members of the community.
