Today was the grand opening of Newburgh Art Supply, The Palatine Shop, and Eric Jarmann Picture Framing at 87 Liberty Street.

“I couldn’t have asked for a more successful first day. It’s been a great time. A lot of people showed up,” said Michael Gabor, who is the proprietor of Newburgh Art Supply along with Gerardo Castro.

In addition to standard artist materials, the Newburgh Art Supply specializes in earth-friendly artist products.

The Palatine Shop focuses on Newburgh souvenirs. Named for the famous Palatine Hotel that was unfortunately razed, the shop will be a place to find new and old objects that commemorate the “pride of place” of living in Newburgh, NY.

Eric Jarmann is very excited to have a workspace open to the public once again. He notes that customers should call to arrange an appointment, but he usually can meet the same day as his workspace is just around the corner from the showroom. Jarmann is looking forward to reconnecting to his customers.
