A beautiful antique display case that is between 75 and 100 years old sits in the front of Aartvark gallery. We have used it to showcase our magnificent collection of kaleidoscopes over the past nine months. Should you have any interest in either purchasing a kaleidoscope or you have a use for this display case please reach out to Susan. We are technically not open today, but will be there packaging up all of the photographs in anticipation of Applefest in October.

Six days remaining to visit and purchase some real treasures from Aartvark Gallery before they close. Many images by John Doskoch, Susan Morris, Bill Dietrich and Colin Morris remain on the walls until September 9th. We still have framed images by owner, Terry Salmonson available. Some unframed photographs of Terry’s are available at extremely reasonable prices. Swing by and find a fine art photograph for your home or office.
Did we mention that kaleidoscopes will be 10% off until we close? Kaleidoscopes are visual delights on both the inside and the outside. If you haven’t seen the adult versions, you really need to stop in and take advantage of the opportunity to view them and perhaps take one home.
Please like and follow our page for up-to-date information after the gallery closes.

Institutional size images of Charlevoix available while supplies last. Many of these large 3’x 4’ or larger images have a poly carbon coating which means they don’t need glass when framed and displayed. If you have a large space and want to acquire one of these treasures at a great price stop in at Aartvark before we close our doors for good on September 9th. 
There are many other unframed images available at heavily discounted prices .
Also, this will be your last opportunity to see the amazing variety of images taken by eight local photographers. Those framed images on the walls will be relocated to other venues on 10 September.

Some great treasures are to be found and purchased as we clear out the basement at Aartvark. The owners have sold their portion of the building and the gallery will close by September 10. There are many miscellaneous frames and printed images that were never matted or framed that are available at greatly reduced costs. Check out the storefront next to the gallery. All fine art photographs within the gallery remain for sale and will be relocated by the individual photographers to other venues for sale once we close.
