Village Arts Framing & Gallery will conduct its 50th anniversary celebration open house from 1 to 4 p.m. April 12 at its Ponte Vedra Beach location in Sawgrass Village. This milestone event honors five decades of dedication to fine art and expert framing, and the community is invited to join the celebration.
Founded in 1975, Village Arts has become a cornerstone of the local arts scene, known for its exceptional custom framing services and thoughtfully curated gallery. Owner Pamela Keegan and Gallery Manager Lisa Cederberg have made it their mission to preserve and showcase artwork with the highest level of care and professionalism. Using only archival-quality materials, they ensure every piece — from family heirlooms to contemporary masterpieces — is framed to last a lifetime.
The gallery represents 15 award-winning local artists working in oil, watercolor, pastel and acrylic. Their diverse and vibrant works reflect the beauty, creativity and spirit of the region.
During the open house, guests will have the opportunity to meet some of these artists, explore their work and learn more about their creative processes.
The gallery represents Eve Albrecht, Aurora Ave, Lisa Cederberg, Jami Childers, Jeffrey Desautels, Sandra Fitzsimmons, Carol Grice, Pamela Keegan, Lorraine Millspaugh, Tom Nagata, Rick Petersen, Karen F. Rose, Mary O. Smith, Missy Vanover and Cindy Zeigler.
“We are so grateful to our customers, artists and the Ponte Vedra Beach community for their support over the past 50 years,” said Keegan. “This anniversary is not just a celebration of our history but a tribute to the incredible local talent we’re honored to showcase and the relationships we’ve built along the way.”
The event will feature light refreshments, live artist demonstrations and special giveaways. Art enthusiasts, longtime patrons and new friends alike are encouraged to stop by, meet the artists and experience the warmth and creativity that have made Village Arts a beloved local institution.
The event is free and open to the public. For further information, go to villageartspvb.com or call 904-273-4925.
