ABOUT THE WOMEN’S COUNCILFounded in March 1950, the Women’s Council of the Gibbes Museum of Art serves as a vital support system of the Gibbes Museum of Art, with its dedicated members volunteering time, talent and financial support to the Museum and serving as liaisons between the Gibbes and both residents of

and visitors to the Charleston community. The annual Art of Design Luncheon and Lecture features internationally renowned experts in the world of design and is the Women’s Council’s signature event. In addition to its annual Art of Design fundraiser, the Women’s Council organizes numerous educational programs and social gatherings from September to June for members and their guests.

DID YOU KNOW?Did you know that the Gibbes Women’s Council has supported the Gibbes Museum of Art since the group was founded in 1950? These volunteers, now boasting more than 200 members, have supported the Museum in countless ways. Their legacy of impact includes the following:

– Since the 1960’s, the Women’s Council has raised funds to establish the Museum Store which now generates significant revenue to the annual operating budget.

– During the Museum renovation period, 2014–2016, the Women’s Council assisted the capital campaign and helped raise $200K to name the Museum Store.

– The Women’s Council has provided approximately $25K each year over the past 12 years to support education programs such as Art to Go. This educational outreach program in Title I schools directly helps to support the visual arts in classrooms. A $25K grant covers the program and supplies, professional development, field trip to the Gibbes, and museum educator fees for four tri-county schools.

– Since the Gibbes reopening in 2016, the Women’s Council has contributed funds to several new initiatives in the Museum including the Garden Concert Series, Chamber Music Series with the Charleston Symphony, and the Visiting Artist Series. These are all fundamental programs that reach a diverse audience and welcome visitors and members into a creative atmosphere.

– Over the past 10 years, through its annual Art of Design Luncheon and Lecture, the Women’s Council secured more than $50K per year to support exhibitions and educational programming.

Clea Shearer and Joanna Teplin master organizers, founders of The Home Edit, and television hosts

Clea Shearer and Joanna Teplin are both California transplants, currently living in Nashville. Brought together by a mutual friend, it was friendship at first text, and business partnership immediately thereafter. The goal in starting The Home Edit was to reinvent traditional organizing, and merge it with design and interior styling. While every project is rooted in functional systems that can be maintained for the long term, there is just as much emphasis placed on transforming the space visually and adding their signature stylized aesthetic.
