MM+ covers the early influences of Europe and North America and what has transpired since the early 1950's in the two Americas.

RESTORE YOUR PIECE. GREAT ADVICE
Restore your Piece 1:1
Bring a photo or your large or small piece. We recommend items made of wood, metals such as brass and chrome. All photos will be discussed as a group. 1:1 advice, hands-on and restoration demonstrations will be given. This workshop will enlighten and give practical guidance. Casual / work clothes recommended. Supplies provided. Minimum of 2 persons.
VALUATION
Put a Value On It. 1:1 Consult
A knowledgeable eye for unique 'tells' can save you time and trouble. Googling is often not an option. Image recognition technology is not yet robust enough and pricing varies widely. Send a photo to receive personalized service and not a group setting.
LIFESTYLE
Feng Shui
Feeling the comfort and provenance in our interior spaces is an art and a science. This is one of those courses that speak to each person's intuition and assists in giving reason to our inner voices. "I believe that our environment determines much of our well-being." Quote: Roberta Grant, certified Feng Shui Practitioner
