Asheville Art Heads Have Discovered a NEW Planet…

…in the River Arts District

Magazine Mosaics by Shelley Schenker and chairs by Hobie's Porch Chair Caning

Welcome to Planet Art.  A new world of art and framing that won’t break the bank.

  • Professional, Sustainable & Archival Picture Framing at Reasonable Prices
  • Featuring Recycled/Reclaimed Art
  • WE LOVE CONCERT POSTERS!  $10 of each poster you frame will be donated to Habitat for Humanity

We’re here for YOU:

  • artists with projects that need to look good but not eat up profit
  • families with lots of kids’ art to frame (cheap!)
  • artaholics who have souveniers from 5 years ago still in plastic
  • music junkies with show posters crammed in a closet
