The National Arts Club is an exclusive private members club housed in a brownstone at 15 Gramercy Park.Tired with the city’s turmoil I stopped by to recharge my culture palate, grab a glass of rosé, and get a short tour around.
Extravagance is what the Arts Club does best – note the stained glass panels, decorative fireplace surrounds, bookcases, and doors.
Notable Members
National Arts Club has been home to Theodore Roosevelt, Woodrow Wilson, and Dwight Eisenhower. Among other notable members are Mark Twain, Martin Scorsese, and Uma Thurman.
