Super cool place, there is so much stuff there, 2 more floors of stuff below ground level. Not an artist myself but if i was, seems like i would have everything i need. Theres even high quality balsa if you need to build bridge for science olympiad. Super nice employees ready to help if you need anything aswell. Great place!

The store was very quiet - no loud blaring music, and not crowded. Both the floor manager and the cashier were so friendly and helpful. I had a list of 20 items, and was able to find everything with help in only 15 minuets. I recommend this institution strongly!
