About Us

Habatat was established in 1971 in a suburb of Detroit, Michigan. We are the oldest and largest art gallery in the United States devoted exclusively to artists working with glass as their medium. Our 16,000 sq. ft. (including the Vault) Michigan gallery is the home of the original International Glass Invitational which, for 51 years, has introduced and exhibited the greatest artists working creatively with glass.

Our Mission

Our mission is to service collectors both public and private. We take an active interest in developing collections and promoting artists whom we feel should be recognized in our generation and beyond. Habatat works with many museums and art centers where we have developed exhibits that have been displayed in over 100 public institutions. Each year we are active in publishing catalogues, from exhibits in the gallery, as well as exhibitions throughout the world.

We welcome you to our Habatat Family and look forward to sharing our passion with you.

Our quality promise

Quality is never an accident. It is always the result of intelligent effort. We spend most of our time and energy for good design and to achieve high quality. Every single detail from material to technique is thought through with obsessive attention. If our product doesn't satisfy you, we'll take it back.
