The New Yorker Ends Jackson Arn’s Tenure Following Misconduct Allegations

The art critic faced accusations of inappropriate behavior and intoxication at the magazine's 100th anniversary celebration.

Jackson Arn is no longer affiliated with The New Yorker after allegations of misconduct at the magazine's February 2025 anniversary party.
Anonymous sources reported that Arn made inappropriate overtures toward guests and appeared intoxicated during the event.
The New Yorker updated Arn’s author page to reflect his departure, marking the end of his brief tenure since joining in August 2023.
Arn’s last published work for the magazine was an essay released on March 10, 2025, just days before his departure.
Neither Arn nor Condé Nast has provided substantive comments on the allegations or the decision to part ways.
