World Art is no longer in business. Yes, there is a new framing business that took over this same space, but I used them once and don’t think I’ll use them again. The team there is young and seems fairly inexperienced, and I just did not like the way they framed my painting. Definitely worth finding someone with more experience in my opinion.

The couple that runs World Art is top notch! They have worked with me to design the perfect frame for many(almost every) pieces hanging on my walls! They generally give me a military discount. I encourage everybody to visit this place for custom framing. On top of custom work I purchased a 3×5 framed American flag from their shop was well that hangs on my living room wall. Also… say hi to their super friendly dog! :)

I brought my cherished autographed hockey jersey to World Art and found Tom and Mary to be very friendly and extremely knowledgeable. I had roughly thought out a layout design for it and they were both very patient with me and willing to spend the time to hammer out all the details and provide their opinions. Everything is completely custom(frame and mat board materials and colors, glass or acrylic, UV protection, etc) They also have a 15% off coupon on the website which they mentioned to me. The final result was high quality and I am very pleased with the work they did. Definitely would recommend to anyone in need of custom framing.

Tom is great… I needed something framed in a hurry. He originally quoted a week, but he called me 3 days later and it was done. Great quality too!

Fantastic selection and service. We move around a lot and have a diverse collection of art that needs framing. This has been my best framing experience anywhere I’ve been world-wide.

My husband and I have TRUSTED World Art for years to design and artistically frame a variety of paintings, photographs and journal articles. This place is incredible! They designed a photo /softball jersey of our daughter that is perfect and a treasure forever. ABSOLUTELYTOPQUALITY! Thank you Mary and Tom for consistent and creative framing.

My fiancé & I went here to have a Chargers jersey framed. The jersey was a former Chargers’ who was like a brother to me that had passed away in 1996. Tom understood how truly important it was to me to have an original, caring job done with this piece. We came up with a great layout that incorporated the jersey along with a couple of trading cards, a picture & a plaque. They worked to get the job done quickly & I couldn’t be happier with the service they provided. They did have to realign the cards to make them more even but they re-set the cards in a couple days and got the finished product back to me in no time. Tom even told me that they have a discount coupon on their website you can print and apply to the framing order which I thought was really cool of him because they could have just made more money by not telling me. All in all, very pleased with the decision to go with World Art. Will definitely be going back to them in the future with framing needs.

I was there yesterday with a new piece to frame and thought I should write a Unilocal review. I think I have had four pieces framed here over the years. I have always received professional service at a high level. It was difficult to trust anyone with my art and they have taken care of and framed my precious art pieces well.

Custom framing is expensive. World art is as custom as it gets, but also very reasonable in price. They work quickly when needed, but quality never suffers. I have had more than a dozen pieces framed there over the past ten years and I have literally never been displeased with quality or value. They are easy to work with and will offer suggestions but are not overbearing in any way. I have used them for personal treasures and for conservation framing to be done for work. They are skillful and kind.

I take all of my art work to World Art. Mary and Tom are so savvy and creative! They take special care of all the pieces brought in and I am highly confident in knowing they will look priceless when completed. I wouldn’t trust my valuable and sentimental pieces to anyone else.

I brought over several pieces of one of a kind letters and airplane memorabilia to be framed. These pieces were fragile and one of kind. They were framed and preserved beautifully. I would use them again. Professional. Careful. Precise. Knowledgable. Creative. True Preservationist of Fine Art of many formats.
