Join master framer Dave Petty for an extraordinary exploration of the Cambridge Art Association's 2025 Member Prize Show through the lens of custom framing. As your guide, Petty will reveal how thoughtful frame selection enhances artistic expression, sharing professional insights on how each artwork's presentation amplifies—or occasionally challenges—its intended impact.
Petty brings decades of expertise to this unique tour, having grown Frame Center from its humble beginnings in a Kingston barn, where his father Bill established the business in 1975, into one of Massachusetts' most respected custom framing establishments. Under his stewardship, Frame Center continues its tradition of exceptional craftsmanship and artistic collaboration.
"Does This Frame Make My Art Look Big?" offers an unprecedented opportunity to understand the subtle interplay between artwork and frame. Discover how these often-overlooked yet crucial design decisions can transform the viewing experience of fine art. Reserve your spot for this distinctive perspective on the Member Prize Show collection.
