Kirstie Bennett, Co-Owner of The Framer's Workshop Corporate Art & Framing Consultant

On Site Art & Framing Consultation
You never have to leave your office

The Program Works Like this:

We come to your office with a full selection of framing samples. If you need art, we bring catalogues and portfolios featuring posters, prints, and photography. We also source original art and historical images. With your preferences in mind, we design your work, and can even send you a digital preview of the design. If you like our proposal we pick up your work and then deliver and hang the finished pieces. Contact Kirstie Bennett for an appointment by E-mail or call: 510-849-4444

Corporate and institutional framing require creative and personalized solutions. At The Framer's Workshop we work carefully to meet your needs. See our Framing for Design Professionals Page for wholesale framing services to the trade.
