pameladallaire Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 Hi Everyone: I need some help from those living in Newmarket. I was contacted by an Art Gallery in Newmarket called "Select Art Galleries", located at 16686 Yonge Street. I have never heard of them and can't find any information about them on the internet other than a map to their store. Has anyone ever seen this store (beside a framing shop) or has anyone ever been in the store? I am leary about sending paintings anywhere I haven't been. Any help would be appreciated. I have talked to the woman by email but I would like to know more about the store from someone who has seen it. Pam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cast-Away Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 Pamela, they are a legitimate gallery. I had some framing done there in the past. They have their own building at Yonge St and Mullock Dr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maybe Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 They seem to have 2 business names, with very different looking Yellow Pages ads: Select Art Galleries Picture Frame Factory Warehouse The Select ad points to www.selectart.ca, which just dumps at a placeholder Bell web page. I tried pulling Archive.org copies, and got the same placeholder going back years. No hints there. However, I did stumble onto a page saying that Select has exhibited works by Barrie artist Melanie Springbett. She'd be a good person to ask about these people. Contact information is on her page. Congrats, and best of luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cthewrld Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 I have been there many times. They are a legitimate gallery, and framing store. They are quite well known in the area. Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
