“I came here to have an alexandrite stone appraised. I was impressed with the Patek Phillipe selection of watches, that’s really awesome to have in a city that’s this small.”

“Is the best place in town to buy unique, hard to find gifts for friends, family (and myself). Items are correctly priced given they are a small business and not a multimillion dollar corporation such as Amazon, and they actively support the artisan community local, student and out of state a like. The staff is always kind, especially the owner. I push this store to everyone I talk too. Please visit them rather than Amazon. Their items are worth the price point. The store as a whole ranges from $6.00 - 200/300 so, don't believe the overpriced stuff. There's plenty of options.”
“Nick is the genuine article and one of those people who makes me glad to live here. He's been framing photos and art for me for a couple of decades now; his eye's great and the frames are Serious, really beautiful. It'd been a while since I'd been in, though, and after dragging my feet on a couple of pieces for a few years I finally made it to his new shop. Keep in mind: I go in there wearing a mask and dark glasses, my hair's gone gray...and he still recognized me and greeted me with a big hug. Like no time had passed at all. Key takeaway: forget how great a guy he is for a second, if he makes a frame for you, that piece will never need a new frame. Decor fashions will come and go and his work will always look right, will always lend beauty to your room and support the artwork. We're lucky to have him here.”
“Lovely museum, it’s so nice that it’s free, if I lived in IC I would walk through often. Quiet, laid out well, interesting exhibits and loved seeing the Jackson Pollock. Will be back!”
“Great venue for local artists to sell their work! We visited to see a friend's art and bought some gifts. Next time we visit Iowa City, we will be sure to visit again! 👏👍😃”
