Princess Eugenie has travelled to New York to attend a series of museum exhibitions, just days after shewas given a new role linked to King Charles. Prince Andrew and Sarah, Duchess of York’s daughter visited The Museum of Modern Art, the Whitney Museum of American Art and the Guggenheim in the Big Apple, in her role of Associate Director at the international art gallery Hauser & Wirth.
The princess has been working for the art gallery since 2015. In a series of photos and videos posted on her official Instagram account, Eugenie shared a mini tour of the premises and the works of modern art by the likes of Rashid Johnson, Jack Whitten, Amy Sherald, Mary Heilmann.
Just last week, it emerged that the princess had taken on a new role linked to the monarch, as she will now be mentoring a group of young creatives selected by the King’s Foundation as part of its new initiative to celebrate the charity’s 35th anniversary this year.
The 35 under 35 is a network of young people working with The King’s Foundation to promote the monarch’s legacy and ethos through their work in various industries, like environmental activism, fashion and architecture.
Its aim is to raise awareness of the work of The King’s Foundation and create a network of engaged individuals “who can work together and exchange knowledge across their diverse disciplines into the future, in line with The King’s philosophy of harmony”.
It aligns with a holistic approach to the challenges facing our planet, something that the King has always championed throughout his royal career.
Eugenie has already met with a group of young creatives at the foundation’s base in the Garrison Chapel in Chelsea.
The King’s Foundation, formed in 1990, is a charity founded by King Charles when he was Prince of Wales, with an aim to bring about the change the monarch wants to see in the world in a range of sectors, disciplines and levels.
Despite Eugenie not being a working royal, her involvement with the King’s charity is reportedly seen as a “meaningful contribution” to the Royal Family’s public work.
