Our Story

Fine Art Framers, started as a small shop specializing in museum quality archival framing for local artists. In time we expanded and ultimately became known for our dedication to the highest level of conservation framing & expert design. We have served Santa Fe’s museums, galleries, businesses, artists, and collectors since 1996. Our current store is settled into the historic Torreon neighborhood on the corner of W. Alameda and Bob St.Our extensive remodel in 2013 provided a beautiful new design space and an expanded work space to accommodate larger pieces.

As active members of the art community we help facilitate communication between our  clients, with galleries, conservators, restorers, appraisers, shippers, artists, and other art professionals, working to ensure our clients have a productive high quality and pleasurable experience working with us.
