POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED
We are delighted to announce that acclaimed visual artist Amy Sherald (@asherald), will present the Marian MacDowell Arts Advocacy Award to Sade Lythcott (@sade1111), CEO of the historic National Black Theatre in Harlem and a leading advocate for equitable access to the arts.

We are also honored that philanthropist and social-impact advocate Ruth Ann Harnisch (@ruthannharnisch), will present the Hillcrest Arts Impact Award to Tina Roth Eisenberg (@swissmiss), the Swiss-born designer and entrepreneur behind CreativeMornings, a global 
community celebrating creativity and connection.

MacDowell’s 2026 National Benefit will bring together an extraordinary community of inspiring artists, visionaries, and leaders whose work embodies pride, resilience, growth, and faith in the future of the arts. Together, their collective impact strengthens our communities, both locally and globally, and reminds us of the transformative power of art to inspire connection, possibility, and lasting change.

Thinking while I stare at my wooden floors: 

I’ve lost all interest in posting online. I used to genuinely enjoy it. I don’t even recognize myself. Gah!

It is with immense excitement that we announce Tina Roth Eisenberg, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of CreativeMornings, as the recipient of the 2nd Annual Hillcrest Arts Impact Award.

An accomplished graphic designer, Tina Roth Eisenberg (@swissmiss) moved to New York City without knowing a single person.  With a passion for bringing creative people together, she went on to create one of Brooklyn’s first co-working spaces, laying the foundation for what would become a much larger creative movement. 

From that spirit of community, CreativeMornings (@creativemorning) was born. What began as a small breakfast lecture series has grown into the world’s largest face-to-face creative community, with a presence in over 250 cities across 73 countries. 25,000 designers, artists, entrepreneurs, and creative thinkers around the globe gather monthly to form this community, thanks to the hard work of over 1,500 dedicated CreativeMornings volunteers.  

The Hillcrest Arts Impact Award recognizes institutional or corporate leaders whose contributions to the arts and culture sector have had a profound impact on the work, wellbeing, and amplification of artists. Named for Hillcrest, the historic home of Edward and Marian MacDowell, the award honors the creative and entrepreneurial spirit of MacDowell’s founders who worked tirelessly from the seed of an idea to build and sustain a vibrant organization supporting artists around the world.

Please join us for our National Benefit at Gotham Hall in New York City on October 19, 2026, for an evening of dinner, performances, and Fellow testimonials as we come together to celebrate our incredible honorees. by @swissmiss

We switched the Swiss Alps for the Montana mountains this year. While we looked for magic, fun was had. What a beautiful country this is. Heart is full. by @swissmiss

What if the most important thing you build isn’t your portfolio… but your community? ❤️⁠
⁠
At this year’s 99U Conference, Tina Roth Eisenberg, founder of @creativemornings, shared why creativity has never been just about making things. It’s about showing up for one another, creating spaces where people feel seen, and believing that optimism and kindness can spark real change.⁠
⁠
Her perspective is a reminder that every conversation, every connection, and every act of generosity helps shape a stronger creative community.⁠
⁠
After all, your life is your biggest design project! 🎨⁠

Man made pond without fish, no longer. Didn’t realize rewilding fish with friends would be this exhilarating. by @swissmiss

Doing it: Dedicating the month of May to a part of me that used to love to draw, sketch, paint. 

Hello there, art school Tina! 

May that version of me get reignited. Thank you #ReleaseDay2026
