Let’s toast to new friends and a successful future for WIB. Our official first meetup! Leave the laptops at home for this one – this is all about meeting new friends and getting to know each other.
Our host – the Battery Park Book Exchange and Champagne bar is looking forward to our arrival! They encourage us to take pictures of each other, the space and any of their staff – but please do not take pictures of other patrons.
I will be purchasing a bottle (or so) of champagne to toast our first event as well as a few of their famous boards. Please be prepared to purchase & pay for any additional drinks or food you may like while we are there. Keep in mind that this is a local business and they are letting us in on a normally busy night for them – we want to support them!
Thank you 🙏 and please feel free to message me with any questions.

Join Doris Potash, master docent, for a conversation about three artworks in our Collection made by women, in honor of the 100th anniversary of the passage of the 19th Amendment. Before the discussion, find a quiet space. Close your eyes, take a deep breath, and let it out slowly. Now open your eyes, and engage with the artworks in the image gallery; click on the thumbnail for a larger image, and spend about 15 minutes looking slowly at each.
Each Friday at 12pm while the Museum is closed, docents lead virtual, in-depth conversations about a few artworks in our Collection or special exhibitions. The goal is simple: slow down, discover the joy of looking at art, and talk about the experience with others. Topics, artworks, and self-guided questions are posted on the Museum’s website in advance for participants, or for those wishing to have a self-guided experience on their own. Space is limited; to register up to one week in advance, email Kristi McMillan, director of learning & engagement, or call 828.253.3227 x122.
