Behind the Scenes with Noëlle

Meet Colleen King/ Sugartown Art & Antiques, Founder

Season 2 Episode 14

Have you discovered Colleen's gorgeous, friendly and approachable online art gallery that is Sugartown Art & Antiques? Colleen is a mother of 4 and is the founder of this highly curated amazing online art gallery that makes shopping for art fun and accessible. Being somewhat confused and feeling defeated by her own personal search for art and realizing a massive gap, Colleen began to shop vintage shops, antique markets, estate sales etc and build a collection for their home.  Shortly after, friends & family came calling and requested Colleen to source pieces for their own homes. Colleen searches all over to bring you the best of Fine, Original and Contemporary art.   She gives easy tips that anyone can follow on your own pursuit of building a personal art collection, as well as trusted resources.  I'm still so sad that I missed out on a piece that Colleen was selling - so make sure you sign up for her email newsletter! You will receive first notification when new pieces become available.
