OUR HISTORY
Founded over 110 years ago, The Pen and Brush, Inc. is an international membership organization for women who are professionally active in the literary, visual and performing arts. Based in a historic townhouse in New York's Greenwich Village, Pen and Brush is a vibrant resource for its members and a flourishing cultural center for the surrounding community.
OUR GOALS

Represent consistently high standards of professionalism in the presentation of art created by women.
Encourage and support young and emerging women artists through scholarships and mentoring.
Provide public access to the work of women artists in a setting that encourages exposure to the variety of art forms.
TO ACHIEVE THESE OBJECTIVES
Pen and Brush hosts over 70 events per year, including art exhibits, music and theater performances, writers' workshops and educational events. Most of these events are open to the general public, while some are designed specifically to benefit our membership.
