Fabulous Frames & Art, the largest Charley Harper dealer in the world, will host the annual Charley Harper Show Saturday, Dec. 5 from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Montgomery Road Gallery.

The show has been going on for 28 years, and for many of those years, Charley, Edie and Brett Harper would come and talk with fans, creating silkscreens right there in the gallery, according to a press release.

Charley’s son Brett will be on hand to answer questions of his own work and sign books he's written.

There will be framed and unframed Harper prints (limited edition serigraphs, giclées, lithographs, posters, silkscreens and canvases) wall-to-wall, as well as a collection of rare original paintings dating back to the 1950s. In addition to artwork, Fabulous Frames offers a selection of Harper home decor, tableware, apparel, books, children’s games and toys. 

The Charley Harper Art Studio will officially release two new prints at the show: a large format canvas featuring Charley’s beloved “Mystery of the Missing Migrants” (retail price $595); and a lithograph print of a burrowing owl family titled “Full House” (retail $35) which will be free on the day of the show with any print purchase.

Visit www.CharleyHarper.com for a preview of all the art and merchandise, or for directions to any of their four Cincinnati galleries.

The Montgomery Road Gallery is located at 10817 Montgomery Road.
