"I started as a part-time framer twenty years ago. Since then I
have managed numerous frame stores of various sizes and held a
senior management position with a national retail framing chain.
In recent years I've seen dramatic changes in this business in the
areas that can least afford it: Quality, Service, and Selection. We
have created Gastonart & Frame specifically to provide
outstanding customer service, unique design and a top quality
product... and do it at a great price."
“I have a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree with a minor in Art History
from Framingham State College. I continually attend educational
framing seminars and workshops to stay up to date with latest
techniques, products and services. After serving the last two
years as a Retail Director, I am now the Vice President of the New
England Chapter of the PPFA.
I recently earned the title of Certified Picture Framer (CPF). CPF is
a certification issued by the PPFA and is given to those who
successfully demonstrate competency in conservation framing
techniques as well as a solid understanding of the picture framing
business. I want you to be confident that when you come to
Gastonart & Frame you and your art treasures are receiving the
BEST service and care possible.”

John H. Gaston, CPF
President
“It has been my intention from the start to make Gastonart &
Frame so much more than just a frame shop and art gallery. I
have always wanted to create a center for the local arts
community. A place where people could come and talk art, see
art, and experience art.”
“As a graduate of the Vesper George School of Art in Boston, my
career concentrations of graphic design, illustration, and art
instruction, have culminated in a lifetime of practical experience.
All of which has been brought to bare at Gastonart & Frame.”
John M. Gaston
Vice President
We are John H. Gaston (the son, a.k.a. “Harry”) and John M. Gaston (the father) and we are the owners/operators of Gastonart & Frame. Though we only officially opened our doors for business in September of 2004 we have spent a lifetime in the world of fine art and custom picture framing.
