KENDRA ELISABETH EBERTS

owner, principal appraiser

Kendra has envisioned a career in the arts since the young age of 4 years old. With an assortment of crayons she carefully designed and created the business plan for an art gallery and café. "Art by Eberts" would exhibit artwork by Kendra and her friends, while "Kendra's Kafé" would feature her grandmother's homemade pies and mother's strong coffee.

Her life-long passion for the arts and its markets inspired her to complete a Masters of Art at the Sotheby's Institute and Certificate in Appraisal Studies through New York University and the Appraisers Association of America. Fast-forward to 2012 when Kendra established Key Art Group. She draws on her academic and art market experience to establish value of fine art, furniture and decorative items. Through conducting appraisals and advising on collections, her clients have included private collectors and individuals, corporate collections, insurance agents, lawyers, trust and estate officers, wealth managers, and galleries.

Kendra is an Accredited Member of the Appraisers Association of America and has successfully passed the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) course and examination, which qualifies her to conduct appraisals for IRS tax purposes.

Kendra still dreams of running a gallery and café ...someday.
