What a great little art supply store in Florence! First off, the woman who I talked with while I…read morewas there is fantastic. I think she may have been the owner, but I'm second-guessing myself a bit now. I was on the Charm Trail. We got to talking and somehow it came about that while I'm from Eugene I currently live in Chicago, and she happened to live in Chicago at one point, too. We also both worked at universities in the city. Just having a chat with her made it a fun stop. The store is very clean and has many of the art supplies one would need to create their next masterpiece--paper, canvases, paints, pens, you name it. They have information about workshops and art-related events as well. I am not much of an artist but I did do a paint night in grad school once and found it to be a lot of fun (surprisingly so--it was very soothing). That is to say, you may also find painting to be a relaxing activity, so if you've ever wanted to pick up the hobby, visit here and you'll good guidance from very helpful staff. I was a bit sad that it's not in Eugene, since I don't get to Florence very often even when I'm home visiting, but coming here did spark creative energies that I'm hoping to follow in the coming months!

This place has an impressive range of product. I was doubtful they'd have items I wanted. But they…read moredid. And excellent brands too. I poked around a bit and found several items costing less than my go-to internet sources. Well done to the owner! Staff was knowledgeable and helpful too. I will be back.

I stopped in this store as I was trying to complete the sea lion Christmas contest that different…read moreFlorence businesses were participating in. Although I haven't used their services, the woman was very friendly and chatted with me a few minutes once I'd spotted her sea lion. She had sample work up on the walls and was carefully preparing a piece when I walked in, and there's a good selection of frames from which to select. I would happily visit here instead of a chain like Michaels to have expert framing done on important items. She said that shadow boxes are a common item that she does, which I hadn't thought about but would be really neat for things like ticket stubs and the like. It's 2020, and small businesses are struggling. This is one worthy of patronage. If you're looking to create a gift or have something special that you'd like to preserve or frame, visit here and support members of the Florence community.

Stopped here to get a print framed. The owner was busy with another customer but gave my friend…read moreand I some mats and frames to play with. We made a quick selection but the owner was still tied up. We indicated what we wanted and that we would run an errand and come back in about an hour at which time she could give us a price for what we picked out. While I was there I spotted a cute and quirky print on the wall with a fun yellow frame. I indicated that I wanted to purchase this and took it off the wall. When we came back an hour later, the owner (Moira), had a price for us for a frame, a mat, and glass for the print. It was less than 100.00! Also, the print that I saw on the wall did not have a finished back, and in the hour when we were running errands, she removed the velcro that was used to hang it in the shop and put a proper paper back and a wire to hang it on with little corner pad protectors...without my asking and without charging me extra. Super nice! I live in Portland but have family in Florence and I will consider bringing my art down to this shop when I visit to have it framed down here! Also, her chip reader would not work with my card so she took my number down and said she would figure out how to run it manually in a day or so. I did not feel at all nervous about leaving her my card information and she charged it accurately and destroyed the number. Trusted merchant!

No photos, because this is peoples' intellectual property on display (and undoubtedly people would take photos to make things themselves as replicas for their own use or to sell rather than support the artisans whose work is sold here). You'll find all kinds of treasures here, from rings and earrings to wallscapes and utility knives. I bought two pairs of earrings here, both sterling silver. I didn't feel any pressure when I went in to purchase, and the woman was happy to get anything out of the case that I was interested in. Most everything is under lock and key, so be patient and you'll get the help you need.

We were touring our local communities and this was on our 'Staycation' list of places to visit…read more The Siuslaw Pioneer Museum covers the Florence area from the original Native Americans and Pioneer Settlers. Many artifacts, letters and old photographs depict the lifestyle of the two peoples and the developments over time. This building is itself an historical building and has many rooms and two floors of displays covering early logging, agriculture, pharmaceuticals of the bygone era and a history of the crossings of the Siuslaw River and ultimate construction of the bridge. One of the staff working that day was Judy Fleagle who has written and published several books on Oregon and it's sights. We were lucky to have her there that day as she is extremely knowledgeable about the history of the area. She gave us a brief introduction into the museum and gave us the history of the building itself. We found her very entertaining and captivating as a speaker. A perfect candidate for a museum host!

Admission is $5 per person and totally worth it. The two volunteers inside were super friendly and knowledgeable. They were willing to answer questions and seemed to fully enjoy interacting with people. It was so nice and refreshing to see in a museum environment. Be sure to watch the video on the news coverage of the exploding whale from 1970. It's an intersection story, to say the least. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our time here. We spent a little over 2 hours taking everything in. Would highly recommend.
