The Three Arts Club of Chicago was a Chicago home and club for women in the "three arts" of music, painting and drama.
The club, modelled on the Three Arts Club of New York, was founded in 1912. In 1914 the club commissioned their own building, designed by architects Holabird & Roche. This building provided a residential space continuously until 2004, when the last of the residents moved out. In 2007 the building was sold to developers. Over 13,000 women had stayed in the club.
In 1981 the building, located in the Near North Side neighborhood at 1300 N. Dearborn Street, was listed as a Chicago Landmark.
