Description: In 1912, The Three Arts Club of Chicago was chartered to "provide a home and a club for young women engaged in the practice or study of the arts in the city of Chicago." More than eighty five years after its founding, The Three Arts Club continues to nurture the personal growth, artistic development, and professional advancement of women in the arts. We open our doors to hundreds of women annually, who come from throughout the United States and abroad to pursue careers in all artistic disciplines, providing short term and long term residency.
