In this powerful episode of The Giving Garden Podcast, we sit down with Sara Cardona Kay, a renowned art dealer, activist, and founder of POWarts [Professional Organization for Women in the Arts]. With more than 25 years of experience across museums, auction houses, and her own gallery, Sara has spent her career advocating for equity, creativity, and the transformative power of women in the visual arts.

This conversation is a call to action for anyone who believes in the power of creative community. It reminds us that when women come together with purpose and passion, they don’t just shift conversations - they shape culture.
