Introducing........ARTé Gallery and Framing.

It was 1996, and Las Vegas was booming. This was when Art Visions began. The old ’76 Chevy box van was re-painted and plastered with “Art Visions Mobile Picture Framing” vinyl on the sides and rear doors. My brick of a cell phone was constantly ringing with home or business owner inquiries. What a great four years, but 40+ years in Vegas was plenty for me. Art Visions was bought out by a New Yorker, and we landed in Mesquite, NV, another booming location. Soon, we re-opened at the old Abbot Hotel, a haunted 120 year-old two story treasure, and Mesquite Art and Frame was born. Business was so good, we opened ARTé, a second gallery in NW Mesquite. The economic recession of ’07 and ’08 caused us to downsize, and we relocated in St. George, UT. ARTé began as a very small 200 sq. ft. office, and now, 6 years later, we are a 4000 sq. ft. full framing and Art Gallery facility. The Gallery is 2800 sq. ft., and displays over 500 artworks. Our 18 years of picture framing allows us deep wholesale discounting. We are professionally and competitively priced when it comes to custom framing. Come visit us at 415 S Dixie Dr. just one block from Valley View.
