As you may have guessed, our name is inspired by mercury head dimes, but also Mercury; the Roman god of commerce and the messenger. The tie-in here is that artists are messengers, sharing ideas, perspectives, and stories.  

Artist Ben Perrin opened MercuryHead Gallery in our current location in October of 1999 as a gallery space to represent local artists. Over the years, our business and our space have evolved; shortly after opening, Ben used his experience in quality craftsmanship carpentry to expand into custom framing. Laury came to work alongside Ben in 2007 assisting in frame design, managing the front end, and adding her photo restoration services to the business. In 2012, we began printing in-house to better serve artists and photographers, corporate clients, and our everyday customers looking to reproduce their images, photography, and keepsakes into quality prints and wall décor.

​
Constant from the beginning is our dedication to high quality products, customer service, and our community. Laury is fond of saying, “There are two things I have never heard Ben say, and they are, ‘I can’t’ and ‘good enough’. He has high standards and that is why we all like working with and learning from him; he pushes us to do our best.” Above all, we live by Ben’s philosophy that you don’t have to be miserable while making a living; we work hard and take pride in our work, we don’t hate Mondays and we don’t live for Fridays, we treat our customers the way we would like to be treated, and through all that, we have made countless friends and met so many incredible people.
