The front gallery features various updated shelving, displays, a newer computer system with a main computer and tablets to make taking orders a breeze.
- Market Outlook / Competition
- The business is situated in a prominent downtown area with heavy foot traffic. We are a top-rated, primary framing and art gallery in the area.
- Opportunities for Growth
- While the business is waiting to be sold, I am continuing our business growth plan for this year. New for 2026: Owner expanded the rear end of the gallery to accommodate artist supplies after a competitor shut down to try to absorb new revenue. By mid-2026, I'll be adding in fine art printing services so we do not have to out source our larger printing jobs. We're currently in beta-mode for an art collector online sales portal, which targets previous art buyers of high end fine art. A new owner with more time can expand hours.
