Opus

Framing & Art Supplies

Embrace your inner artist, at Opus! We are proud to be one of the oldest merchants on the Island, originally opened as a DIY framing service for local artists. Our owner David van Berckel soon realized that artists needed even more support. He developed a business philosophy that was centered on finding ways to help artists in their careers, not just by selling materials, but also by providing resources, information and donations.

Today we continue to offer our popular DIY framing plus an inspiring selection of art supplies for every type of creative endeavour. We often hear our customers say they feel like “a kid in a candy store”.

When you visit, pick up our free “how-to” handouts and award-winning Opus Visual Arts newsletter - the art community’s best resource for art news, exhibitions, events, artist demos, community articles, workshops, and more.
