3745 N Southport Ave, Chicago“We were in the Venus Cabaret theater, which was a lovely tiny little venue. We got to be right up by the performer, but the whole space was small enough to feel intimate.”
“I love this little boutique store filled with local art in all types of mediums. Great gift ideas and some fantastic Chicago specific decor finds. Great store in my favorite neighborhood in the city.”
“I’ve never been to 345 art gallery… A good friend of mine Amanie had her Poetry And Paint sessions here!..when I say “THE ART OF IT ALL!!! The creativeness I saw in person! It was amazing & so were the people ?! You have to visit this establishment!!!!.. ???✨✨?️”
“For my visit to Chicago I visited this gallery store. They have a wide variety of items and accessories that make the public want to buy more.
I would have liked to see even more things for men, most of them are focused on just gender. But if you come here again, you will find many things of decorations and accessories for you and the house.”
“This place is a testament to the power of the leather community. It’s not just whips and jackets it’s community care and love that holds this crew together. As you go through the archives you will see intimate histories of the people who built homes for themselves and others. There are binders of patches and stickers from across the country. Amazing art that celebrates the community as well as Tons of informative work. This place also contains a very good library of lgbtq texts that is a must for anyone interested in lgbtq history or literature. They have fiction, non fiction, pulp, photography works you name it they got it!”
“I love this place! Every time I step foot in Sideshow Gallery, I get a wave a calm and good energy. I received a tarot reading today that was very informative and spot on! These folks are professionals in their craft. Don’t pass up the opportunity to come here!”
“I found a great rug for my son's apartment and some very cool earrings. I love browsing her store. Her sense of style is beautiful and uncomplicated. Love it.”
“Robert repaired our old stain glass window and our old stained glass curved lamp shade. He worked very closely with us to find the best possible replacement glass pieces. Both pieces came out super and they are proudly displayed in our home. We highly recommend Harmony Art Glass, you will not be disappointed.”

“I needed to pick up a framed poster for my client and they went above and beyond to wrap it, provide hooks and screws, and help me get it to my car. Everyone was friendly and professional. Plus, they have a cute parrot!”
“So many excellent pieces! This was a fun little date stop to pop in and see the art. They have pieces for every price point, as well as sale items. Highly recommend even if you just want to walk around/window shop.”
“Looking for a Ceramics store/craft shop and stumbled on this gem.
Mostly wholesale to businesses they also have everything available for sale.

1444 W Lake St 2nd Floor, Chicago“I haven't been there and I'm from Chicago but just looking at the pictures the artwork the glass work breathtaking and those are just photos just imagine in person looking at them”
“Looking for a frame to compliment a print is a tedious chore as there are so many places in Chicago to choose from. I was able to find Prints Unlimited and Jill was able to narrow down my selection like a puzzle sorting out different color mattes and frames. Jill was able to quote me a price minus a check-in discount (under $600) which made this final product come to life. The final product was mention to take 3 weeks but after 2 weeks, I got the call to come pick the print up. I am glad Prints Unlimited made this process easy and the price was very affordable. Highly recommend Prints Unlimited to anyone who is trying to match a print to frame.”
“Beautiful store with so many talented artists on display. Guaranteed to have something you will like. If you are in the area, i would highly recommend you stop by and check it out.”
“We had such a fantastic experience having our son’s 10th birthday party here. The staff is super helpful and set up tables and chairs for us. The kitchen was great to set up pizza and cake. Most importantly, the kids had an absolute blast playing all the video games! The parents also wanted to play the games at pickup. We’ll be back for sure!”

8AM - 3PM
838 Custer Ave, Evanston“I just picked up two framed pieces and I am absolutely floored by how gorgeous they look. The owners were lovely and patient in helping me choose the perfect frames for the artwork I brought in. They truly have an eye for color and scale.”
“I cannot say enough good things. I got two very special pieces of art framed and they came out exquisite! They were delivered and hung perfectly! Michael was so nice and professional. I would definitely only use Signature of Art for all of framing needs from now on. They also have beautiful art for sale there.”
“I cannot say enough good things about Cheryl and George in the Northbrook store and the corporate office of The Great Frame Up. I recently ordered a beautiful and unique frame there for a very large painting that was just so perfect for it. However, it then turned out the manufacturer of that frame had recently closed, and the frame was no longer available. The Great Frame Up corporate office, along with George and Cheryl, went to great lengths to reach out to all The Great Frame Ups nationally, make many calls, and track it down for me in Seattle and have it shipped to their store. They were caring, responsive, and just really kind about everything. The frame is on the way and then they will be able to custom frame the painting, have it delivered, and installed in my home. Thanks to their efforts I will be able to have exactly what I was hoping for!”
“Was gifted a custom piece from David and it’s absolutely perfect! Went to pick it up and met David who is nothing but great - all the artwork in there is so unique. Would highly recommend David’s gallery”
“This is my favorite gallery in Chicago. I’ve been going for over 10 years and have built up quite a collection. Sara, the owner, has helped me create the vibe and ambiance of my home and I love being there. The art is affordable so you CAN actually collect more than 1 or 2 pieces if there’s an artist you love, in particular. Will continue to come back here over and over. If you go once and it’s not your vibe, the art changes over time and the shows rotate, so follow them on IG and you’re sure to find something you’ll love or love to gift to someone special.
Included a pic of a few pieces with this review.”
“We stumbled across this space while walking through the neighborhood. The curator was super friendly and informative and the artwork is definitely worth a look. Would absolutely visit again.”
“If you want to learn more about printmaking, start here. If you want to begin collecting art, and you'd like to start with an affordable option, start here! The owner and director, Deborah, is an artistic force of nature. An aesthetic whirlwind. And pay special attention to their holiday sale. This is a fantastic place to get a special kind of present!”
“Great collection of art work. They also host showings and it's awesome to meet the artists and learn more about their works.Even has a used record store in the back area!”
“Who knew picking frames could be so fun! We have had several pieces of art framed here and could not be more happy. Always respecting our budget and taking time to know us personally. True service and quality! Also my kids love their candy jar!”
“One of the few places left on the north side that supports local artists and designers. The openings are always a lot of fun, with a diverse crowd and friendly people.”
“My husband and I greatly enjoy Cynthia’s highly developed artistic eye as she curates who and what she shows at Vivid Gallery. That expertise makes it very hard to resist adding to our own art collection fromthe new, emerging artists she shows, as well as the established yet still frontier pushing artists she exhibits. Vivid Gallery is simply a jewel in the North Shore. Thank you Cynthia!”

246 Chicago Ave, Oak Park“I taught at Terra for 20+ years. (I moved to northern Michigan in '21). My former students have kept me up to date about how the studio has improved since changing ownership. Really outstanding. This has always been a great place to take a pottery class, find community, and get outstanding instruction. You've always wanted to learn to throw on the wheel, right,? Take a class!”
“Did an online auction with Ian. He was very responsive & patient with me. Especially since this was the first auction I did with him. I'm very happy as a bidder. It was also pretty cool to see an old MJ bball card go for 25k on the webcast!”
