Welcome our Speaker: Deborah Hartigan, artists and gallery owner!
Deborah Hartigan is the resident artist, founder and principal of DHV ARTWORKS, an 11,000 sf preeminent contemporary fine art gallery in the Dallas Design District showcasing more than 200 original artworks.
A Dallas resident for 20+ years, Deborah, an experienced abstract expressionist artist and sculptor herself, is passionate about elevating the arts community and is one of four founders of DGFA (Dallas Galleries For Advocacy), a non-profit corporation founded in 2022 with the purpose of uniting Dallas-based galleries in providing more cultural opportunities for Dallas residents. She is also a member of Leadership Arts Institute, Dallas Business Council for the Arts, Ladies of the DMA, International Womens Forum and serves on the Board of Trinity Strand Trail, a 501c3 corporation with the mission to complete the walking and biking trails serving Dallas.
Her previous work experience in finance and real estate for a NYSE REIT, where she acquired over 6.3 million square feet of community strip shopping centers and 10,000 units of multi-family housing, and raised capital in the equity markets gives her a unique perspective and advantage in managing and growing DHV business and aligning objectives with mission. She studied at Boston College, New York University, abroad in London, and has a BFA from Hartford Art School, University of Hartford. She continues to create contemporary art designs working privately with her commissioclients.
