Nice post Nikki! Thx for adding our opening at Frame Nation.
There really are so many wonderful things to see!

We are encouraging people to park across from Main St. Station and visit us and The Whitley Gallery next to LuLu's on 17th in Shockoe.
Parking there is plentiful and cheaper than other lots in the area.
Also the "To The Bottom and Back Bus" can shuttle art lovers all over the city and it's a fun ride!
