October Art Stroll 2009 Downtown Marquette

Tomorrow is the Art Stroll in Downtown Marquette!

Art of Framing will be showcasing a new and upcoming local artist, Stacie DuWaldt.
Who is actually... ME! My husband and I have owned Art of Framing since July 2001. I've dabbled in sketching and painting and decided to put myself out there for all to see.

So stop on in and enjoy a few snacks on us!
