What happens when women move from being the echoes of other people's expectations to becoming the architects of their own futures?
Join us for a special evening celebrating From Echo to Athena: The Evolution of Women in the Great Wealth Transfer, an anthology exploring women's changing relationship with wealth, power, identity, and legacy.
As an unprecedented transfer of wealth reshapes who controls financial and cultural assets, From Echo to Athena brings together women's voices and expertise to examine what this shift means — not only for individual women and families, but for the institutions, communities, and generations they influence.
Inspired by the contrasting figures of Echo and Athena from Greek mythology, the book invites us to reconsider inherited assumptions about women's authority and explore what becomes possible when women have the resources, confidence, and agency to shape their own destinies.
Four women. Four perspectives. One powerful conversation.
Ann Priftis — Contributing Author, Co-Editor & Art Advisor. As a contributor to From Echo to Athena and CEO of Off Piste Fine Arts, Ann brings the book's themes to life through her expertise in art, collecting, and wealth stewardship. Her chapter examines women's growing influence over family art collections and the cultural legacies they preserve and create.
Priya Frank — Arts & Equity Leader. A longtime champion of equity and representation in the arts, and former Director of Equity, Diversity & Inclusion at Seattle Art Museum, Priya brings insight into how women can reshape cultural institutions, challenge traditional structures of power, and ensure that more voices are represented.
Professor Olga Levaniouk — University of Washington, Classics & Hellenic Studies. An expert in ancient Greek literature and mythology, Olga will illuminate the mythological figures behind the book's title. What can Echo and Athena teach us about women's voices, wisdom, authority, and the stories that have shaped our understanding of female power for centuries?
Moderated by Dr. Laura Marie Rivera — Researcher, Founder of Intuitionship & Host of MOTHERHOOD ADVANTAGE. Dr. Rivera's research examines the leadership skills developed through motherhood and caregiving — and why women's contributions have so often been overlooked or undervalued.
Hosted by Judith Rinehart at J. Rinehart Gallery. We're delighted to gather in the beautiful J. Rinehart Gallery, generously opened to us by Judith Rinehart, an accomplished Seattle art dealer and gallery owner whose work champions artists and the cultural value of art.
The evening will feature a lively moderated conversation, audience Q&A, and an opportunity to meet Ann Priftis and purchase signed copies of From Echo to Athena.
Come for the book. Stay for the conversation about what happens when women claim the power to shape their own stories — and the future.
