Alaska: Bigfoot Art Gallery

Rob Roy Menzies makes his bread and butter framing and matting in his newly-acquired business, but the other half of his shop is all things Bigfoot.

He bought a matting and framing shop from long-time owner Pam Strahan. Any space where there are not framing materials is filled with Bigfoot paintings, photos, t-shirts, puzzles and more.

“I’ve been an artist for most of my life,” Menzies said. “My little niche is drawings of Bigfoot.”

“He gets people in all the time people just stop when they see the sign,” Strahan said. “I immediately thought it was a really, really great idea, especially for Palmer. Palmer is different.”

Menzies has been an artist and musician for decades. He sells his art and instruments at the shop.

The Bigfoot Art Gallery is on Geranium Avenue and S Colony Way.

    He’s a really great guy. Gave a great talk and slide show at the Musk Ox Farm a while back. Knew him in Juneau. Great artist.
    He was commissioned by the military to draw a Bigfoot for their Bigfoot aware teaching chapter so military would be more aware of what they might encounter when on trainings or “other”. And they still deny they exist? ! lol lol. He showed us a copy of that part of the training manual with his artwork of Bigfoot on it, that all military had to learn……………
