Hudson Art & Framing

Friends,

After 32 fulfilling years of my life on Main Street, I have chosen Brian Dean to carry Hudson Art & Framing forward in 2025. Brian is a friend, an artist, and an amazing picture framer. He and his wife Liz have a lovely young family in Bolton. I will be happily staying on two days a week to ensure a smooth transition.

 

My son David was a young teenager when I started the shop. Thankfully, he was encouraging and patient – he still is, these three decades later. My wife Suzy joined me during my ninth year and has had my back ever since. Our daughter Aurora came along in year twelve and grew up in the business. 

 

Hudson Art has been a wonderful part of my life. Working with friends every day is the best. I have so many great memories of all the fun I've had with Ruthie, Carol, Margaret, Joni, Max, Kim, Nancy, Jennifer, Debby, Kristen and more. It helps when you have such fabulous customers. You’ve brought us thousands of amazing things to see and told us thousands of interesting stories about them. We have laughed and cried with so many of you and you've brought us so much joy. Brian will love the community we've built together and I know you’ll love him.

 

This letter was a hard one to write. I am not a fan of change, but the shop and I have new lives ahead. I will always cherish the relationships I built with so many of you who have become like family to me. Thank you for the trust you placed in me. It has been an honor. 

 

I wish you the best this holiday season,

Lorene
