VISTA  GALLERY &  FRAMING

A Fine Art Gallery and Custom Picture Frame Shop For Sale

Career Opportunity for a special person or persons to assume this business

I started this business in august of 1992 with creative and innovative business methods.  In order to fulfill my dream of being a full-time artist, I know wish to find a new owner and manger of Vista Gallery & Framing. I have a large following in the area, as a full-time artist I hope to continue my representation at Vista Gallery. I am excited to create a win-win situation for the right person(s).  Because it is two businesses in one, more than one person can be involved, and live and work at beautiful north Lake Tahoe.

In April of 2008, the business evolved by expanding the gallery display space, providing better art storage and downsizing the picture framing space.  The custom picture framing is now done by a very professional shop in Sacramento that picks up and deliverers every couple weeks or sooner, depending on needs.  They do a great job and we are still in control of every aspect of the design and protection of the art or keep sakes by the methods and materials used.  It is like having really great employees but they don’t need our space or equipment to work with.  This expansion allows for possibilities for art and framing sales. Newer photographs depicting the new display space will be on this page soon. Quick and simple fitting and glass replacement is still available for framing customers.

You don’t have to do custom picture framing to run this business.  You have a good supportive team behind you.
This is a special opportunity for a friendly and helpful person to assume business.  Consider the possibilities.
2007 was my best year in the history of the business!

I have been primarily the single manager and worker; just think what a couple or more people could do. My hope is that the entire business is raised to the next and higher level of performance.  To find out more about this business cruise this popular web site, there are over 100 easy to manage pages.
