Also, as the Director of the City’s Office of Small and Emerging Business Development, and a business owner himself said: “I have had the opportunity to watch for decades as Shakor shares his talents far and wide, opening and operating a successful studio and gallery and placing his artwork throughout the nation. But he has also supported other entrepreneurs. He celebrates his own Shakor Studio opening today while giving other business owners an opportunity to display their products sums up his motivation, one that includes achieving success in business but also sharing his resources in support of the aspirations of others. I wish Shakor, and Troylynn, continued success. I know that the new Shakor Studios will be a great asset to this community for decades to come.”
