The specialists at Four Corners Framing and Gallery walk customers through the process of designing their own frames from mat to glass, keeping artwork and photographs safe by performing all services onsite. Custom framing ($50+ depending on size; most orders cost $100–$300) encases cherished collectibles or wily escape artists in a personalized fixture. Experts guide visitors through a selection of more than 1,000 moulding options and offer advice on mat selection. Adding a pane of reflection-control or conservation glass protects pieces by blocking more UV light than sunglasses coated in sunscreen. Between framing decisions, customers can peruse a gallery space that features new local artists every month.
