ASHCAN ART AND THE TRIANGLE SHIRTWAIST FACTORY w/ DEBORAH WELLS

This is a very unique lecture because I provide the background of art scene in NYC in the early 1900s and connect it to my personal story of being a descendant of one of the Jewish immigrant victims of the historic Triangle Fire of 1911. There are many interesting factors to artfully combine both themes. This has been a big hit with audiences.  Artful Circle was founded in 2013 by the expert team of Franklin Hill Perrell and Debbie Wells. In addition to art gallery, museum, and art fair events, they work on major curatorial projects for museums and art collectors, including exhibitions, signage, catalog publications and present customized lectures on all things art to private groups and organizations. Enjoy the art world at its best with Franklin and Debbie’s original presentations and entertaining banter.

Artful Circle has pivoted the business model due to the pandemic from in-person experiences to all virtual.
Happily, membership has grown to include art-lovers from all over the world and new ways to have fun with art are continuously being explored!  Franklin Hill Perrell
