The maps were stored in a shipping tube for several years and we knew we wanted to have them framed so we could display them. From the moment we walked in to the store, we were treated very kindly as they walked us through the different framing and mounting options for our maps. We were looking for a frame that looked a bit weathered to look something like a dock, and they had the perfect framing material. We picked up the maps the other day, and they did an amazing job. The frames themselves look fantastic, and the maps were mounted perfectly with the minimum of overlap to maximize the visibility of the maps. We are very pleased with our entire experience with Frame Dimensions and will be returning in the future for any framing needs we have.

I only came across the West Hartford Art League by chance through an event posting, and I have been an avid follower and supporter since. WHAL offers great classes for youth and adults, for beginners and experts. There are also lots of awesome showcases of locals' work - including some of my own photos once or twice - of different media. They always have a nice opening reception - often with free food and drink - which is a really nice touch and a way to meet others. Separately, I have also come here for a few mostly food events, like the CT Eats Out supper club inaugural event. There's really something for everyone here, and I am thankful to have found out about WHAL. Consider yourself now informed!

I really enjoyed getting the chance to view some local art by some really talented folks! Now that this location is on my radar, I am going to be checking in so see what other events they host. I heard that they also have done photography showings in the past. The venue itself is a tad tough to find just going by google maps, but once you realize where it is, parking is super easy. It's small but cozy, well laid-out, and adorable. I found the atmosphere for the event dinner to be extremely charming, and the staff were amazing. I'll be back, WeHa Art League.
