These Women’s Clubs Can Help You Build Your CareerBook clubs these empowering organizations are not. And chances are, there’s one coming to your city. By Jorge S. Arango On January 9, 2019 ![]() Virginia Woolf’s assertion that “a woman must have money and a room of her own” feels particularly real these days. Blame it on politics, media, popular culture—all of them combined—but more and more the need to carve out a place devoted to our passions and pursuits feels necessary, dire even. And apparently, that urge is reaching a critical mass, thanks to a new kind of women’s club that is making it easier (and more enjoyable) to find a room of one’s own. The word “club” has varied roots—from the literary women’s groups of the 19th century to the smoky patrician bastions of male privilege of the early 20th century—but the new model for women’s clubs is far more evolved, with a focus on building community rather than advancing social division. Just ask Cate Luzio, a career banker who found Luminary—a 15,000-square-foot establishment in New York’s NoMad neighborhood—this past November. “We purposely don’t call ourselves a club,” she says, explaining she prefers the descriptor “collaboration hub for women.” Luzio believes the potential elitism of old club models can actually be counterproductive. “Moving women around at the top is never going to change the numbers. When you step out of that box, real cross-pollination happens; when you have something exclusive, that doesn’t happen.” To that end, Luminary has an open application process and offers flexible memberships, day passes, and coming this January, a frequent-flier-style program, to allow for members of all backgrounds and socioeconomic statuses. Clearly, Luminary is no knitting circle—and it’s not alone in its quest. Last March, London’s AllBright opened in an 18th-century Georgian townhouse with the mission to facilitate networking among women to “build their sisterhood” and “remedy the gender imbalance in the business world,” says cofounder Anna Jones says. In Minneapolis, The Coven is built on inclusivity, billing itself as a “creative, comfortable, and safe workspace for women and non-binary folks,” according to the organization’s cofounder Alex West Steinman. And another women’s collaborative space, The Wing, already has three locations in New York, one in Washington, D.C., and another in San Francisco just two years after initially launching. Leave it to the modern woman to turn the old club model of entitlement and exclusivity on its head. At The Coven, members include city councilwoman Andrea Jenkins, the first black openly transgender woman elected to public office. The club also sponsors a “five-for-one” community-funded membership program, whereby for every five memberships purchased, the club grants one free. “They’re prioritized to people of the community who have been historically pushed to the margins,” says Steinman. The new clubs also aim to create holistic spaces that cater to specific female needs. “If you look at women’s lives, what suffers most is wellness and self-care,” Luzio says. “Women need spaces for things like lactation and meditation. We provide a full ecosystem for them.” This includes a fitness studio with classes and a beauty bar. The AllBright also has a salon that offers members and their guests beauty treatments. Aside from a beauty bar with skincare products, The Coven tenders a “Parent + Prayer” room. If the new brand of women’s clubs aims to be everything to everyone, it seems to be working: The AllBright will open a second branch in Mayfair this spring that, at 12,000 square feet, is triple the size of the original. The Wing has its sights set on openings in Toronto and five more U.S. cities over the next few years. And The Coven has more than doubled its membership in just 10 months. Finally, it seems, we have a room—many of them in fact—of our own. CLICK HERE FOR ORIGINAL ROBB REPORT ARTICLE BY Jorge S. Arango
![]() What a privilege! Those who know me well know that I have been a big supporter of women moving forward to the best of their potential in whatever path they choose. Sometimes, its the actions that we take quietly and behind the scenes that matter most. In this case, I got to do it in bigger than life-size proportions - namely 9 feet tall! Cate Luzio, who has been an amazing force behind organizations that empower women, has launched a new venture called Luminary. This space allows women to connect, network, and take advantage of a myriad of services and opportunities. It's nothing short of fabulous in every way. Through Mary Cantone's William Ris Gallery in Jamesport, on the North Fork of New York, I was invited to do a solo exhibit of my work for the launch. The exhibit was curated by the meticulous eye of Brooke Cantone. The Luminary team is an impressive group of women with expertise in various fields ready to put their seemingly endless energy to work. The launch was a great success with over 300 people in attendance. Cate Luzio has deservedly gotten a lot of press on this venture. I had an extra treat today when I saw an article in Lonny Magazine full of pictures featuring my artwork! Must admit my friends and colleagues had to tolerate a bit of bragging from me today... I'm so thrilled to be a part of this for so many reasons. As an artist, it's always an honor to be able to exhibit in wonderful spaces like this one. My background is finance and I was on Wall Street for many years. Those skills serve me well advising clients as a licensed real estate salesperson with Douglas Elliman and running "the business of art". As a businesswoman, my worlds of art, design, real estate and architecture are complimentary to each other. There is a good synergy at the intersection of all those industries but it takes some definite balancing and hard work. I know first hand how important it is to have supportive forces and mentors that can open doors and provide insight. I'm so excited to see the energy behind new resources that provide opportunities for continued self development and growth. To combine both art and support women in the process is great inspiration for the start of the new year. Grateful... #GIRLBOSS! |
