NEW YORK—Just one glance across an airport waiting room set the course for putting a historical art organization back on the map.

“This is the moment in my life when everything changed for me,” art collector Tim Newton said, recalling that fateful instant he saw a man opening up an art catalog. That glance sparked his friendship with artist Del-Bourree Bach, who introduced him to the Salmagundi Club while chatting on a plane flying somewhere over the Midwest on their way back to New York in 2002.

That same year, Newton became a member of Salmagundi. Now, as the club’s chairman of the board, Newton spoke to a group of art collectors and club members at the first of a series of events commemorating the 10th Annual American Masters Fine Art Exhibition and Sale at Salmagundi, from Oct. 8 to 26.
