THE END OF AN ERA FOR MANSON FRAMERS.

An era is about to come to an end - Manson Framers business is closing.
It has been run by Cameron and Sharon, members of the original founder Keith Richardson's family.

 There is still time to place your final framing orders and to purchase art supplies*

by the Tuesday 15 August. Shop front doors will be closed from Wednesday 16 August.

We will be working in the workshop completing all the remaining framing orders.

Customers will be contacted to arrange collection times as work is finished.

Cameron explained that a number of factors had led to their decision to close the business, including increased costs of supplies and a steady rise in the costs of operating the business as well as a downturn in demand for their services.

Unfortunately the picture framing service will not continue at this stage. Cameron will re-evaluate and re-access the framing business after a period of six months and most likely be a greatly downsized operation.

There is a mailing list below to leave your name and email address for future contact; this can also be used for the new art supplies shop relocating to Wynnum West run by Sharon as

“Bayside Art Supplies”

“Bayside Art Supplies” WILL NOW OPEN from Wednesday 22 Nov 2023 at

32 Pinewood St Wynnum West.
Opening hours are Wed, Thurs and Friday, 9-4 and Saturday by appointment only. Any inquiries, please contact Sharon on 0402 003 282 or

email: baysideartsupplies@gmail.com

* The needlework threads side of the business will also not continue

and there are even further reduced prices whilst stock lasts!

Team member Krissy Clark will also continue in her speciality of photo restoration from her home studio in Wynnum West, under the name “Art by Krissy Clark” on Facebook.

“We would like to say thank you to all of our customers over the years.” said Cameron “It's been a great pleasure and honour to have helped them with their treasured artworks and precious memorabilia and Sharon and I, as well as all the members of our small team would like to say how grateful we are for their faith in and support of our business since we opened in 1964.”
