He has been the visionary and facilitator for numerous art initiatives as well as an accomplished curator. Habermiller was also a founder of the 11 year-running Graceland collective as well as Calgary?s original Art Rodeos.

Her cultivated work experience in art consulting for private and corporate collections, representing artists in public art opportunity, and broad experience working in several art galleries, have honed her innovative approach to doing business within the arts.
In its first year of programming, Skew received favorable critical attention for both its innovative approach to business in the arts and for the work of our represented artists. |
