“Great place to stop in on First Friday Art Walk. They do it up right with music and wine, cheese,and munchies. Very festive. This shop and gallery has been a fixture on Congress Street for a very long time. Keep up the good work.”

Highly recommend a visit and after exploring the gallery, head off into the up and coming surrounding neighborhood for a beverage, a bite or shopping. A trendy area about to pop.”

“I've been to the store in Portland, and I've ordered a piece online. Both experiences were very pleasant. In the store, even though I didn't buy anything at the time (I didn't want it to break on the plane ride home), the woman who showed me around took the time to answer all of my questions. She was extremely knowledgeable about all the different types of pottery, even explaining one particular glazing process in minute detail. The collections were varied, and all were beautiful in different ways. Months later, I went to their website and purchased one of the pieces I'd admired in the store. The piece arrived quickly, packed very carefully with detailed care instructions. It looked even better than I remembered, and it made a lovely gift for a dear friend of mine. I can't wait to visit the store again when I return to Portland this summer.”

“Excellent gallery space, very well laid out, good lighting to see the art at its best, and it was quiet! (Apparently the internet was down so they couldn't play any music - good thing!) Personally, I would prefer to explore the art without the hindrance of music as it allows you to imagine your own that suits the art. It featured local Maine artists of varying stylistic persuasion and skill. Very enjoyable!”

“RWS is one of my favorite places. Kate, the owner, welcomes collaboration, creativity, and community. She understands that being an artist isn't just about creating, it's also about connecting with a community of people who can help you bring your art to the public (and make money!) With over 50 artists in house at Running With Scissors, there is always someone interesting walking around and something fresh and new to see. Keep up the great work, RWS! ~Abbie McGilvery”

“Like many, I wandered into this lovely gallery, and I visit it every time I am on Peaks Island. The paintings and art displayed are always wonderful. If I was a bazillionaire, I would buy them all. The people there are just delightful and so knowledgeable. Great place to visit.”

“We went into this beautiful store in Portland during a Memorial Day weekend and my wife surprised me with an amazing 5 year anniversary gift from Zafer’s collection. At the time when I received the gift the goblets weren’t ready, but will soon be. Zafer holds a high degree of quality and the glace and color need to be perfect for him to sell it, worth the wait for us! Can’t wait to see the goblets in this picture soon, but for now we enjoy the wine carafe which is such a beautiful statement piece and fun to pull out during a special dinner! Can also use as a water carafe of course. Highly recommend.

Update: the goblets turned out beautiful see picture, Zafer’s word is golden. Such a joy to do business with an artist like him.”

“We recently visited six different art galleries in Portland looking for a traditional painting for our home. Roux & Cyr had without question the best laid out display, and a far greater selection of framed paintings, and at a price range that would accommodate all budgets, than any of the other galleries we visited in Portland. This is the place to go if you are looking to buy a fine painting for your home !”

“I saw a metal sculpture on their website that was out of stock. I contacted the stores directly to see if they had any in stock, I wanted to purchase 2 for Christmas gifts. Nicholas from the Portland location, assisted me and he was wonderful! They didn’t have any in stock but he offered to contact the company to order it for me. Nicholas ordered them and he shipped them to me so I could have them in time for Christmas. Incredible customer service by the staff, I also talked to others employed at this location. I cannot say enough about Abacus Gallery! Thank you for helping me get one
of a kind Christmas gift for each of my nephews!”
