 In 1939, Seath was elected a member of the Contemporary Arts Society of Montreal, an honour that was bestowed again the following year by the Federation of Canadian Artists.Although Seath was gradually gaining recognition for her skills, she—like many aspiring female artists of this period—still struggled to exhibit her work in galleries.Despite the disbandment of the Beaver Hall Hill Group, many of its members continued to identify and organize group exhibitions under the association’s name.
