57th Association Business Clubhouse Lampshades Organisation Professional Businesswomen
EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the Card Room at the A.W.A. Clubhouse, a haven for professional and businesswomen in the heart of New York City during the 1930s. The American Women's Association, an organization of 5,000 members, provided a space where women could connect, network, and relax after a long day. The 25-storey building at 353 West 57th Street accommodated both permanent and transient guests, offering a home away from home for those traveling for business or work. The Card Room, with its elegant decor and inviting atmosphere, was just one of the many amenities available to members. The room is filled with the soft glow of lampshades, casting a warm and welcoming light over the green felt-covered card tables. Women in smart business attire sit around the tables, engaged in lively conversation and friendly competition. The room exudes an air of sophistication and camaraderie, a testament to the power and influence of women in business during this era. The A.W.A. Clubhouse was more than just a place to play cards; it was a community where women could come together to support each other, build connections, and advance their careers. The Card Room was just one of the many spaces within the building that offered opportunities for networking, learning, and personal growth. Whether it was a game of bridge, a business meeting, or a social event, the A.W.A. Clubhouse provided a space where women could thrive in their professional and personal lives.
