Anni Irish at The Art Newspaper reports that after two years of negotiations and numerous demonstrations and rallies, Staff at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York City have finally reached a first Union contract, which was ratified with an overwhelming 97% of the vote.  The Union, which first formed in 2021, voted to become part of Local 2110 of the United Auto Workers, which represents Workers at museums across the Northeast.  “We're very pleased by the contract,” Union Spokesperson Maida Rosenstein said. “It results in substantial gains for the Guggenheim Staff - materially, but also in establishing a Unionized workplace that changes the landscape for the Staff and has put eyes on the Workers themselves.”
