Read MoreWe're back! No appointments necessary.
We’re so glad to be open to the public again. We’re still taking appropriate precautions for the health and safety of everyone, but it’s so good to see people and share the camaraderie we missed so much.
Because of the nature of our business and the size of our shop, we want to clarify that our “no appointment necessary” policy still stands. Feel free to come in with your framing, to browse the artwork, or for a consultation. If you prefer to make an appointment, we’re happy to comply.
We’re still wearing masks and gloves, disinfecting between clients, and offering curbside pickup.
As always, don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns
