DESCRIPTION:Oct 1 - Dec 4\, 2026\n“Remember the ladies\,” Abigail Adams
  famously wrote to her husband\, John\, in 1776. “250 Years: American Wo
 men Artists and the Nation’s Story” does just that. The nature imagery
  of Lydia Biddle’s 1795 needlepoint sampler with its geometric tulips an
 d pine trees\, holds the promise of the landscape and still-life paintings
  eventually produced by American women artists in the decades to come. Wat
 ercolors on ivory and early oil portraits\, several by members of the pain
 terly Peale family\, punch above their weight. The story wraps up with Emb
 race\, created in encaustic in 2023 by New Mexico-based Margaret Thompson.
  Given how long women artists had to fight for the same training and recog
 nition as men\, the starched mobcap in Mary Way’s Side Profile of a Woma
 n with a Hat (c. 1810) starts to resemble the crested helmet that the godd
 ess Athena wore into battle. Welcome\, women warriors.
