The Art Studio is in its 5th year of full-service picture framing. Howie keeps an extensive inventory of moulding, matboard, glass, etc. so same-day service is a possibility. The Art Studio also sells individual sheets of matboard and foamcore, along with other framing supplies and an expanding stock of quality ready-made frames. Other services include object repair (a ceramic eagle and a wooden Cuchina doll, both busted by rambunctoius cats, were successful recent repairs) Commercial discounts up to 20% are available and all work is guaranteed.
