The AAA was founded by Reeves Lewenthal in 1934 with the idea of bringing art by prominent American artists into the homes of everyday people at a time when original artwork was out of reach for many. The model proved to be a win-win situation that lasted for more than 60 years. It allowed artists to earn income at a time when many were struggling due to the economic hardships of the Great Depression, while also providing the general public with affordable access to art. The concept also made the arts more inclusive overall during a challenging period in American history.
