About Portara
The name Portara Advisory is inspired by the monumental marble gateway that overlooks the harbor of Naxos, Greece. Built in the 6th century BCE as the entrance to a temple dedicated to Apollo, the Portara was never fully completed. For more than 2,500 years it has stood as a symbol of thresholds, possibility, and transformation.
Just as the ancient Portara opens to the sky and sea, Portara Advisory serves as a gateway that invites clients to step into new experiences, meaningful connections, and lasting impact through art.
Our Mission:
At Portara Advisory, our mission is to open gateways to beauty, connection, and transformation. By curating art and experiences with intention, we guide collectors, artists, and institutions in bringing stories to life that resonate long after the moment has passed.
About Logan, Founder & Principal Advisor

She is a member of the International Society of Appraisers (ISA) and will complete her Appraisal Studies certification in 2025, expanding her ability to provide comprehensive collection guidance and appraisal services.
Logan is also deeply engaged in the arts community, serving on the board of Arts For Life, acting as a juror for regional art exhibitions, and contributing to panel discussions and speaking engagements on topics including curation, collecting, and creative career development. Her leadership reflects a commitment to supporting artists and fostering accessible, meaningful connections through art.
In addition to her advisory work, Logan is a certified Reiki practitioner, offering holistic, energy-focused sessions for artists and clients seeking a more mindful approach to art and space. If you’re interested in incorporating energy work, please let Logan know.
