I recently brought my nephews here for one of their art classes, they have came here before and…read morelove it so much! There are so many different options for each kid and it isn't structured in a way that limits each child to only doing one project at a time. This time around there was a sensory bin, trucks and play dough, different art stations like easel painting, coloring/painting/decorating wooden guitars (she even gave us rubber bands to attach to make it make sounds), stamping station, and paper plates folded in half with something inside to make music- they had all sorts of stickers and markers available to decorate them. At the end they also read a book together and she even gave the option to leave art work there to pick up for next time. It's such a fun environment and very easy going, nothing is too serious and there is SO much to do!

We looked at designers from all over the world and decided that Arn's rings were our favorites! He…read moreworked with us carefully to make a set of three rings (engagement ring for my fiance, and wedding rings for us both). They turned out gorgeous, and very affordable compared to any other mokume gane we had seen. The ability to choose the metals, mokume pattern, final ring texture, oxidization, ring width, gemstone type and location was a huge boon. The ring wears well with time and is easy to clean -- small scratches from daily wear don't diminish the look. Thanks for the beautiful work Arn!

Arn Kreb's Mokume Gane rings are awesome!!! I was looking all over the internet for a unique men's…read morewedding ring. Found lots of stamped out mokume gane rings for huge money, and then stumbled upon Arn's work. Called and spoke with Arn who opened the shop just to meet my fiancé and me. He was super patient explaining the process of how he makes the rings and showing us his shop and all the variations of what he can make. Each ring is hand made by Arn using many different layers and types of metals. I know it sounds a little weird, but I love the ring we bought from Arn! Each time I glance down (6+ months of wearing it) I smile because it's a work of art - haven't taken it off yet. It wears well with a nice patina that doesn't diminish the "wood grain" metal work. He also skillfully sized it to my finger, having me try it several times in the process until we got it just right. Thank you Arn!

We stoped by as part of Gallery Night Providence and I had an opportunity to talk with the owners…read moreand shared that I come from a long line of artists and art lovers, in fact, my great-grandparents, grandparents, and parents have brought many of their items here over the years to be expertly matted and framed. I learned that this business had the distinction of being the oldest framing shop in the country dating back to the early 1900's and has remained a family run local business during this time. (Wow! That's impressive!) Initially based out of the Arcade in Downcity Providence, they moved to this location in the 1970's and have continued to expand over time. What you will find today are three massive floors filled with artwork, prints, drawings, ceramics, etc from great local artists in addition to their large framing area. They can handle all types of projects small or large and provide service and support both locally and out of state. They boast quality craftsmanship, lifetime guarantees on their work, and prices that are comparable to what you'd find from the big box chains that offer framing services (no coupon needed!) The difference is the years of knowledge and experience you get when choosing Providence Picture Frame as well as the good feeling you get knowing that you are helping a long time family run store stay in business for future generations. You'll also find friendly employees who care passionately about their business, their community, and helping the customer get exactly what they are looking for. Pro tips: Consider shopping in their gallery for unique and special birthday or holiday gifts. Not sure how to display that special photo, artwork, or sentimental item? Stop by to talk to them about their custom framing ideas and to preserve your one of a kind item for a lifetime.
