What People Are Saying About Frank & Dunya
Featured Review
Contributor
Contributor
In Short – For more than a decade, this store has helped foster the whimsical nature of the Fremont neighborhood. Sculpted likenesses of Frank and Dunya, the owners' former dogs, invite customers into this shop where 95 percent of the artwork is created by Washington artists. Pieces range from ceramic toothbrush holders to mugwort-filled silk dream pillows--slip one under the mattress to recall your nightly visions.
Editor's Tips
- Know Before You Go:
- Layaway is available. If you pay 30 percent down, you have 30 days to pay the remainder of the bill.
- The Extras:
- There's more local artwork at the Sunday Fremont Flea Market.
- Look Good:
- Out-of-towners should look here for something to help them remember this funky neighborhood, self-named the "Center of the Universe."

A Fremont art treasure! Fun, eclectic, interesting ... amazing place to find local and interesting art
by confwriter at Citysearch
This Fremont store, Frank and Dunya, is one of the great art outposts in Seattle! Funky, eclectic, bizarre without being kitchy -- you should go just to LOOK! But... don't just look. There is ART there. And talk to the people who run the place about what the store holds. They really know their stuff, art-wise, and a conversation with them is as much a treasure to your mind as a visit to the store is a gift to your eyes! It's a great place to go when you need that gift that is REALLY unique!
- Pros: unique, eclectic, innovative, interesting, good service, knowledgeable
- Cons: too much stuff to see at once! It's a sensory overload (which means you'll have to come back!)
