I strongly recommend Old City Art & Framing for both purchasing art and framing. There are wonderful pieces of art in the store, and they also do frames for numerous pieces of art both from the store, and elsewhere. Staff are extremely knowledgeable and helpful. The framing quality and service are of the highest standards. I would not consider framing anywhere else.
3 Tribal Home

This eclectic shop reminds me of a museum. Tribal home has merchandised for the home and to wear. Art is from local artists and countries in Africa . Looking for abstract art made from reclaimed wood/screens/paper...? Tribal has it. Looking for cards to frame? A stool? Tribal Homes has that and more. Karen Riggs (owner) will guide you through purchase with a story behind the merchandise. You can also her at The Barnes Foundation discussing art and giving tours.

A simple gallery space that is as good as the rotating collections. I wish parking was easier in the city, so we could properly devote our time to this creative space.

Visited this gallery on First Friday art walk. Delightful surroundings. Interesting items. Loved the solid slab of Wood with just lips and teeth in the center. And the big bird sculpture is impressive.
Enjoyed explanations of various art work.
The small art carvings were beyond my budget. Good cookies.

A little misleading. When I went here the only thing you can look at is this mural or eat at an overpriced restaurant. The mural is amazing and I studied it for a good hour to make the walk worth it

This place is appropriately named because it's so visually stimulating. The number of items they have is wild. The detail, colors, and variety are great. Prices are very reasonable and the staff are helpful without being pushy. It is a very cool place. 3 stories. All you need to do is pop in for 10 seconds and you'll be drawn in for much longer. Go support this place.

Nice variety of work on view. Too bad they are not open when people are walking around...like after work, on their way to dinner, or going to the theater. They lose a ton of foot traffic.
Want more? Let me help you find the best street art in the area of Society Hill or Chinatown or Market East.
