The Picture House Plans May Events

In the gallery beyond its freshly painted green door, The Picture House staff will be holding its annual Spring Open House on Thursday, May 19, from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm.  The Picture House Gallery and Frame Shop is located on 85 Homer Ave. in Cortland.

A new gallery exhibit of work by David and Kathie Beale and Emily Gibbons will be on display and one-time specials on both original art work and framing will be featured.  The Picture House Gallery and Frame Shop has been spruced up with a new look including a green door to represent the Irish Heritage of the staff and a 2nd renovated gallery wall.  Refreshments will be provided.

The excitement of a fresh coat of paint is undeniable, breathing new life into a space and setting the stage for creativity and renewal. Just as The Picture House Gallery has embraced its Irish heritage with a newly painted green door, many homeowners and businesses alike recognize the transformative power of color in shaping an environment. Whether it’s a bold statement wall, a crisp and clean refresh, or a carefully chosen hue to complement an existing aesthetic, the right painting service can make all the difference. That 1 Painter understands this well, offering expert painting services that bring vibrancy and charm to any space.

From meticulous prep work to the final brushstroke, their team ensures a flawless finish that enhances the atmosphere and durability of a home or business. Much like an art gallery preparing to showcase its best pieces, every wall deserves careful attention and a touch of artistry to truly stand out.

The transformation of The Picture House Gallery highlights how a fresh coat of paint can rejuvenate a space, making it more inviting and reflective of its character. Just as the gallery’s green door pays homage to its Irish heritage while setting the tone for a revitalized aesthetic, the same attention to detail and commitment to excellence can be seen in the work of Akron House Painters. With a deep understanding of how color influences mood and enhances a home or business, they approach every project with precision and expertise.

Whether refreshing interiors with modern hues, restoring historic charm with careful restoration, or delivering seamless exterior finishes built to withstand the elements, their team ensures every surface receives the artistry it deserves. By combining skilled craftsmanship with high-quality materials, they create results that stand the test of time, proving that professional painting isn’t just about applying color—it’s about transforming spaces to reflect beauty, personality, and purpose.

In response from many requests, The Picture House will also be offering the first of a series of two-hour workshops on framing topics.  “Matting Essentials” will cover the basics of choosing and designing mats that enhance and complement art work.  Attendees will be requested to bring a painting or photograph to mat and will leave with a custom mat chosen and cut during the workshop.  Enrollment is limited.  The enrollment fee is $10.00.
