Wright's Custom Framing in Brookings, Oregon is more than just a great place to get anything framed. It's more like a mall for artists. Their large central gallery is the current home of the Bear Fest 2010 WILD BUNCH Bears on Harleys. The Dusanka Kralj Gallery, showing contemporary abstract paintings, is both colorful and contemplative. The line of art supplies has been expanded and you'll find just what you need in the Artists Supplies department. Suzi and Dennis can frame just about anything. They will also make giclees of your art work or art prints of your photographs. At the back of the "mall" is a huge art classroom and new classes are about to begin.
