I had several canvases in all sizes stretched and wrapped for perfect gallery quality pieces. I also had them frame some prints that ranged in size from 2'x3' to over 5'x4' and they couldn't have turned out better. They aren't cheap but you get what you pay for!! Their selection is superior to other framers in the area and the service is exceptional! Plus, it's a local business! I love Studio Gallery!

Texas humidity wrinkled a painting my husband gave me for our 40th anniversary. We took it to The…read moreStudio Gallery to see if it could be flattened and saved. The owner explained very carefully what he could do, which was mount it on an appropriate backing, then gave us a very wide choice of frames (I think he said they have about 2000 to choose from). We picked the painting up today, and it looks better than when we bought it! It is smooth, the frame is perfect, both in construction and by setting off the painting to advantage. The service was timely, and considering what we brought in, and what we left with, the price was quite reasonable. There was even a correct-weight hanger enclosed. We could not be more pleased with the service, or the result. There is a mini-gallery of local artists on display, so this is a local business supporting local artists. If you care about your artwork, and something needs restoring or framing, I suggest you go to the Studio Gallery and see what they can do for you.

There were a few folks there selling things but it was pretty deserted. There's a stairway up to a higher level where the artists work but being the holiday season it was also pretty empty. The employee was very nice and was giving recommendations about a certain artist to check out. The parking situation is limited and you'll have to find a street spot or pay to be in a lot.

One of the main reason my family wanted to drive to Waco was to visit the Martin Museum. The museum…read moreis presenting the mixed media arts of two artists, Salvatore Meo and Debbie Carlson. We really wanted to see their arts, especially those of Debbie Carlson. Martin Museum is a pocket art museum located on the campus of Baylor University in Waco. The small museum was sectioned off into two smaller galleries, one for each artist. All the art pieces were intriguing and though provoking. The pieces flowed well with their arrangement. A nice and informative employee manning the galleries was especially helpful in directing us to visit the Baylor University art classrooms hallway that was connected to the museum. She encouraged us to view student art pieces that were on exhibit in the hallway. There were dozens of expressive and enjoyable student arts. We absolutely loved and enjoyed the arts of the two mixed media artists. The unexpected student arts were icing on the cake, a very pleasant surprise. Admission and parking were free.

The museum is very well organized with lots of nostalgic pieces and fun advertisements to see. Interesting to see the changes in design over the years. After the museum we got the floats and they were tasty and a perfect treat especially in the TX heat. They have some fun flavors of Dr. Pepper items you can also purchase like popcorn and cases of pop. Nice family time and place to escape the heat. Spent about 2.5 hours. Tip- $10 parking right across the street for easy access.

My daughter has been a Dr Pepper fan her entire life, so while we were on vacation, we finally had…read morethe opportunity to visit the Dr Pepper Museum. It was a fun experience and much busier than we expected. We really didn't know what to expect going in, but the museum focuses more on the history of Dr Pepper and the soft drink industry than on interactive exhibits. One interesting thing we learned is that the museum is actually a nonprofit organization and is not operated by the Dr Pepper company. We also did the "Make Your Own Soda" experience. It was fun and unique, although it seemed to be geared more toward younger kids. Your general admission ticket also includes a free drink, which was a nice bonus. The gift shop was well stocked with some unique Dr Pepper merchandise that we hadn't seen anywhere else, although it was a little small and could get crowded. Parking was easy and conveniently located across the street for $10. Overall, we had a great time and enjoyed the experience. If you're already visiting Waco, I definitely recommend stopping by. However, I probably wouldn't make the trip to Waco just for the museum alone.

Then this is the place. There are exhibits and working shops of different tradespeople and their crafts, i.e., quilting, woodworking, leather, soap, cheese, etc. We came on a Saturday when they have an open market at the "Barn" (a big barn where all share their crafts and finished work for sale). It was a delightful experience. All provide friendly service and attention to detail. There is no cost to visit, but you may find their wares pricey. But you need to know that everything is handmade by experts in their craft. Their Homestead Heritage Cafe serves great coffee and is a delightful place to spend some time sipping a cup of coffee or tea. The Homestead Heritage Restaurant is worth the visit (make a reservation though as it fills up).
