Creative Freedom | Women as Decorative Arts Entrepreneurs and Connoisseurs, c. 1900-1940
In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, as women across America fought for their right to vote, a parallel revolution was happening. Armed with newfound social and economic power, women stepped out of the home and into the studio, the workshop, and the marketplace, transforming the world of design and decorative arts.
This exhibition, Creative Freedom: Women as Decorative Arts Entrepreneurs and Connoisseurs, c. 1900-1940, celebrates the dawn of the modern woman through the stunning objects she created. As the call for suffrage led to the landmark Nineteenth Amendment, women began to break free from convention. They didn't just demand a vote; they claimed their place as cultural leaders.
