Emily Havens

Emily Havens has spent the past twenty years as an art advisor, working with a wide range of clients, from ambitious, long-term collectors to global brands, including Valentino and other large-scale organizations.

She educates clients on emerging and established artists to build world-class collections and collaborates with prestigious museums, such as the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Brooklyn Museum, and the Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston.

Because of her trusted reputation and longstanding relationships with artists, galleries, auction houses, and institutions, Emily provides unparalleled access to valuable collecting opportunities. She offers a deep understanding of the intricacies of acquiring art, and she empowers clients to expand their vision and see possibilities through her process, which is grounded in art historical knowledge and influenced by the dynamics of the global art market. Emily is driven by an innate sense of what resonates with today's social and cultural climate while always maintaining a curatorial, timeless sensibility, creating collections that are meaningful, unique, engaging and valuable.

Emily advocates for the powerful role that art plays in mental health and wellness. She volunteers with Summertime Gallery, a studio and art gallery that promotes neurodiverse artists. For a pediatric unit of Mount Sinai Hospital, she leads art workshops and hosts an inspiring TV program that features art world personalities.
