What we’re about

Calling all women+ who love art, culture and community! Women of Culture LA is a community for professional women who want to live more art-full, socially connected and culture-filled lives. It is a branch of the original NYC-based community (with over 4K members) designed to connect, empower and inspire women through meaningful engagement with the arts.

Although we started in LA in 2019 and have already hosted four LA-based events to date, we took a break during the pandemic. But we're now back and excited to help you experience the best of LA's rich art & culture scene, all while meeting fellow arts-minded Angelinos.

You can learn more about the original NYC-based group here and see some of the 300+ events we've hosted in NYC & beyond.

    Sisterhood Member Monday Connection Session: Refections & Resolutions

    Online

    Hey sister, how are you? I mean, how are you, really?

    ​Do you have a desire to feel more grounded, inspired, and connected?
    ​Do you ever tire of surface-level conversations and long for more meaningful, heart-felt connection?

    Advance Registration Required here

    ​Then our bi-weekly sisterhood calls are for you. These gatherings offer a space to dig deeper, get vulnerable, and explore your inner and outer world with the support of a circle of like-minded women.

    ​Each session centers on a powerful prompt or question designed to spark reflection and insight. Every woman has the space to share, be heard, and feel held. Come exactly as you are — this is a space to grow, be seen, and build genuine sisterhood.

    ​Our December 15th session, the final session of the year, will be on the theme of reflections & resolutions.

    ​Previous themes from past sessions have included:
    • facing fears
    • having difficult conversations
    • cultivating joy during difficult times
    • releasing perfectionism
    • boundaries
    • intuition
    • forgiveness
    • permission
    • embracing change
    • cultivating curiosity
    • expansion & abundance
    ​All sessions are free for Art-full members, with one complimentary trial session available for non-members.

    ​Please select the session(s) you are able to attend to receive automatic reminders.

    Between Art & Activism: Ruth Asawa with Aesthetic Adventurer (online!)

    Online
    2 attendees from 3 groups

    ​Join us online on Tuesday January 6th for an illuminating 1-hour lecture on the pioneering artist Ruth Asawa, gaining background, context, and deeper appreciation for the artist and her work ahead of our in-person tour of the Asawa exhibition at MoMA later in the month.

    Advance Registration Required here

    ​Asawa is best known for her ethereal looped‑wire and tied‑wire sculptures — delicate, organic forms that hang in space like living drawings, transforming light, shadow, and space itself.

    ​She developed her unique visual language beginning in the late 1940s and early 1950s, drawing inspiration from natural forms, geometry, and traditional basket‑weaving techniques she observed during a trip to Mexico.

    ​Over decades her practice expanded to include tied‑wire works, prints, drawings, and even public‑art fountains — always with a belief in art’s power to connect people, environment, and community.

    ​This lecture by Dr. Jennie Hirsh of Aesthetic Adventurer will offer both a thoughtful overview of Asawa’s artistic journey and a virtual exploration of the upcoming retrospective at MoMA (which we'll be touring as a group before it closes on Feb 7th).​We’ll also reflect on how Asawa’s commitment to arts education and public engagement shaped her legacy as an artist deeply invested in community and access to creativity.​​​
