Free On-Site Programming for PPFA Chapters

PPFA 2010 in Anaheim gave Stuart Altschuler, CPF®, GCF, an opportunity to renew his offer to chapters to provide local programming at no charge. Last year a few chapters took advantage of these programs and they were well received. The program will continue for the 2010-2011 season. If you are a Chapter Leader and are interested you may view the different programs that are available and contact us to make arrangements. This generous offer, funded entirely by Prestige Framing Academy, LLC, is without restriction except that you may use it only once. Altschuler is also a PPFA accredited judge and will be available to judge your print competition as well.

Each class provides a balance of live classroom learning with supervised hands-on project work. Students execute projects from inception to completion.

Basic Introduction to Picture Framing is our week long signature class. You enter with no experience and exit with a working knowledge of framing fundamentals.
