Our Founders

Thanks to Carol Vernon for creating this caricature for us shortly after opening the store. We still look just the same (yeah, right). The pooch by my side would be Gypsy, my first Labrador who helped us set up the store. Sadly, she has left us and followed by Rocky, who served as “Greeter Extraordinaire” for 13 years. We now have two labs to maintain the tradition, Waldo, and Bella.

In April of 2012, we moved to our current location at 245 S. 4th in downtown Coos Bay, OR. Just a block from our old site but wonderful new space, bright and airy and easy to find! We offer our clients artists on staff who earned degrees in fine arts, superior customer service, an exceptional inventory! 

Visit us today or call Art Connection at (541) 267-0186 to learn more.
