NEXT MEETING PROGRAM: MARCH 21, 2026 | 9:30 AM

ART DIRECT FRAME AND GALLERY

Presenter: Gio Martin

In preparation for our April art exhibit, we are delighted to have Gio Martin,

representative from Art Direct Frame and Gallery, share with us tips and ideas for matting

and framing your art pieces.

  • Should you use one mat or two?

  • Should you use color or a neutral?

  • How much space should surround your art and what will enhance the appearance once framed?

  • What are the frame options available?

If you already have a finished piece, feel free to bring it to the March meeting to test out some sample mats and frames.
