Our Story: Denver’s Trusted Custom Picture Framers Since the 1980s

AUM Framing & Gallery was founded in the early 1980s and quickly grew to be the go-to framer for art lovers and collectors in the Denver Metro area and beyond.

AUM was originally located at 4545 E. Colfax Ave. in the South Park Hill neighborhood but moved to our City Park West location at 2227 E. Colfax Ave. in 1989, where we have been ever since.

In 2010 Trevor Byrne purchased AUM Framing & Gallery from the original owners and followed that by purchasing Dry Creek Gold Leaf in 2014, and Cherry Creek Custom Framing in 2021. All 3 businesses are now located at the Colfax Ave location.

Many people ask us what AUM stands for. The short answer? Nothing. It’s not an acronym. The company was originally named AUM (pronounced “ohm”) in part because the original owners were part of a mediation group. After a few years, they realized that “ohm” was becoming dated, and so the pronunciation of each individual letter began to be used.

Over the years, AUM has worked hard to earn its reputation as one of the preeminent framers in the Rocky Mountain region. We have serviced over 5,000 individual clients from all walks of life: well-known art collectors, interior designers, museums, corporations, galleries, artists, non-profits, government organizations, and more.

Our picture framers are some of the most experienced in Colorado and beyond. Other frame shops even recommend us to their clients when faced with more complex projects; time and time again we engineer creative solutions to projects that other framers have said couldn’t be done. If the question is “can you frame this?” the answer is “yes, we can.”
