In 1919 she was elected member of the National Association of Women Painters and Sculptors, New York and by 1920 she was living in New York City; both she and her husband continued to show their work in Canada. She was also a member of the Pennsylvania Society of Miniature Painters, the Brooklyn Society of Miniature Painters, the Washington Water Color Club, the American Water Color Society, and the League of American Pen Women.
