aRT IN ACTION SERIES

The Woman's Club of Wilmette is honored to host The Meier Foundation for the Arts, Art in Action series. This multi-year long art series brings internationally acclaimed artists of all genres together to perform for The Meier Foundation founder and the community.  Each of these artists has been a recipient of The Meier Foundation grants. The WCW is fortunate to have been chosen as the host location for this series.  

The Meier family has supported the club over many years.  Helen Meier's grandmother, the well-known sculptress, Jean Pond Miner, an early member of the WCW, created three iconic bronzed plaques that grace our two lobbies that honor the values, traditions and founding members of the club.  It is fitting that the club opens it's doors to host these events in our newly restored space.                                   
       

We invite you all to learn more about The Helen Coburn Meier & Tim Meier Charitable Foundation for the Arts HERE.
