This Framers Edge location was part of the Corners framing franchise until late 2008. This shop is an independent, privately-owned framing service that likes to promote the greening trend of the framing industry. In addition to custom framing services, the store also carries a selection of ready-made frames and hosts occasional artist's receptions.
Opened in 1981 by artist and framer, John Kasbohm, Atelier 564 is an art gallery and framing shop. The frames pay the bills, but it's the art that Kasbohm loves. A simultaneously bold and retiring personality, Kasbohm engages clients in a gently authoritative manner, inspiring confidence and trust with only a glance and a few words. Admittedly an artist not a businessman, Kasbohm is doing what many businessmen have not been able to do: hang on. John, himself, is worth a visit, the frames are a feature and the art is a loss leader! Warning, call ahead, he keeps approximate hours -- about noon to eight, Monday through Saturday.
