One Art Space Tribeca and the National Association of Women Artists, Inc. (NAWA) proudly presented Art Angels, a special exhibition celebrating the extraordinary women artists and dedicated volunteers whose creativity, leadership and generosity continue to advance one of America’s most historic arts organizations.
On view from Tuesday, August 4th, 2026–Saturday, August 15th, 2026 at One Art Space, 23 Warren Street, New York, NY 10007, Art Angels represents a meaningful alliance between One Art Space Tribeca, a women-owned gallery dedicated to creating opportunities for artists and NAWA, the first professional women’s art organization founded in the United States.
The opening reception was held on Thursday, August 6th, 2026, from 5:00pm–7:00pm. The annual Art Angels exhibition honors NAWA Signature Members who generously contribute their time, talent and creativity to support NAWA’s mission to educate, empower and create opportunities for women artists. These remarkable volunteers are the backbone of NAWA, helping sustain its programs, strengthen its community and carry forward a legacy of advocacy and artistic excellence.
The exhibit consists of 43 artworks—23 “in person” on the wall and 20 additional images projected. The Art Angels are dedicated to their art practices and still find time to give back to the NAWA sisterhood of fellow artists.
“Art Angels represents the incredible impact that happens when women come together to support, inspire and elevate one another,” said MaryAnn Giella McCulloh, co-owner and gallery curator of One Art Space. “One Art Space Tribeca is honored to partner with NAWA, one of America’s most respected and historic organizations dedicated to women in the arts. As a women-owned gallery, we share a deep commitment to celebrating creativity, fostering community and creating meaningful opportunities for artists. We are honored to celebrate these extraordinary women whose passion, generosity and commitment embody the spirit of NAWA and the enduring power of women supporting women.”
Founded in 1889 in New York City by five pioneering women artists—Anita C. Ashley, Adele Francis Bedell, Elizabeth S. Cheever, Grace Fitz-Randolph and Edith Mitchill Prellwitz—NAWA was created to address the limited opportunities available to women artists of the time. More than 137 years later, NAWA continues that legacy through exhibitions, education, scholarships, awards and advocacy.
For more than 16 years, One Art Space has been a cultural destination in the heart of Tribeca, led by Co-Owners MaryAnn Giella McCulloh and Mei Fung. The gallery presents museum-caliber exhibitions featuring emerging and established artists from New York and around the world. As a women-owned gallery, One Art Space has championed women artists through a longstanding series of women’s exhibitions presented over the past decade, reflecting its ongoing commitment to advancing women’s voices in the arts.
Most recently, One Art Space presented internationally acclaimed artist Shepard Fairey, creator of the iconic “Hope” portrait for Barack Obama’s 2008 presidential campaign, at the Hamptons Fine Art Fair, where the curated presentation sold out, highlighting the strong demand for his work and One Art Space’s ability to showcase influential contemporary artists on a prominent platform. The gallery also presented its acclaimed 150 Years of Black History exhibition for Black History Month, featuring renowned artist Purvis Young, whose work is represented in major museum and institutional collections. Additional exhibitions have featured Al Diaz (Samo), Chuck Connelly and Andrew Salgado, with notable past attendees including Alec Baldwin, Spike Lee and Ice-T.
MaryAnn Giella McCulloh’s lifelong connection to the arts comes from her father, legendary illustrator Joe Giella, whose celebrated career included iconic work on Batman, collaborations with Stan Lee and artwork featured on two United States postage stamps issued in 2006 honoring The Green Lantern and The Flash.
Art Angels represents more than an exhibition—it is a celebration of women supporting women and honoring the artists and volunteers whose passion, creativity and commitment continue to shape the future of the arts.
