Matthew began his apprenticeship at the bindery in 1993 and has been here ever since. His interests include fine arts, antiquities and Japanese Martial Arts.
“It is a great privilege to be entrusted with so many rare and unique objects from the past. Conserving and restoring them allows me to use my skills as an artist, as a historian and sometimes as an alchemist. Matching old colors, paints and dyes account for half of my work.”

It's a great time to visit New Hampshire to see the fall foliage, visit your favorite vendors, get some framing education, socialize with other framers, and to enjoy the annual fall framing event.

The event is one day from today, and the seats are filling up fast. We still have tickets available at www.neppfa.com
