“the most special little pocket of a craft store i had ever hoped to find. forget michael's, artist & craftsman supply has an immense variety of what you need to make art, and you'll be supporting small business! i went in just for some spools of embroidery thread, and not only did they have a huge spectrum of colors, but i must have left with two armfuls of craft supplies - as someone who loves to always be creating new things, that's how i know I'll be coming back forever!!”
“I had framework done by Jenny and had a wonderful experience from beginning to end. The finished product truly brought me to tears! The quality is top notch and the turnaround time was impressive, especially so considering it was during the holiday season. I highly recommend KC Arts and look forward to using them for my framing needs in the future.”
“My fav type of craft shop; hold the frills, has all the goods w/ crafty community members at the counter who are excited to help u bring your project to fruition. Will be returning! Got my eye on the little origami kits at least hehe look so fun”
“The customer service is Amazing. when I come im always greeted with a smile and great conversation . I will also support this black owned business . Every item that I purchased from Letty B creations has been phenomenal.”
“We had a group of 15 kids ages 4-9 and made a booking to come in a day prior! The worker was an absolute angel and had amazing patience with all the kids. We had a GREAT time on a rainy day. We would absolutely return.”
“I have been consistently impressed by the quality of Barronarts' custom panels, which I've been ordering regularly since early 2020. After fifteen years of painting on a number of different supports, the Sintra (PVC) surface is a revelation: it's archival, rigid, smooth, durable, and lightweight. Did I mention affordable? I recently ordered some custom poplar floater frames to fit around my medium sized paintings and was very satisfied with the results. The Barronarts team even sent me some free frame finish samples to keep in my studio to refer to and show to clients. Jeffrey Barron is always highly attentive to my needs and extremely responsive over phone and email, a true professional (and solid human being). I wholeheartedly recommend Barronarts for working artists of all stripes!”
“I always go to this Blick Art Materials shop to get any art supplies that I need. If the item is inside the locker, I would tell the employee to open the locker. Very good customer service.”
“Dope this is dope spot. I always try to stop here and spend a lil money when I'm passin thru gentrified Bushwick. Every single time, there's a different worker.. but they're all knowledgeable and dope. Even had to tell one a few days ago how cute she was. Few days ago, I even bumped into BLAKMAN NODU outside the store. IYKYK.”
“I have never taken a class, but have purchased materials and tools. This place has a great selection. you can also take your time and really look. the employees are hit or miss. Actually I think it was one employee who pretended to help me but then ignored me, thankfully there was a way more attentive employee willing to help me out but she didn't know anything about what I was looking for so she had to grab someone who was working in one of the sculpting rooms- she called him a few times while i was there. I wish I got his name because it was clear he was busy but he took time to talk with and really help me out. Honestly that guy alone is worth a five star review but I'm keeping it at four incase he's not there and you end up dealing with the girl who ignores you”
“Highly recommend framing at Art World! I brought two pieces of art that needed to be framed. I just received them and could not be happier with the way the framing came out. Teri spent time to help find the best frame style and color for both art pieces. Teri is super talented, experienced and has a great eye.I have learned that the right frame can really enhance the art! I plan to return to frame more artwork in the future.”
“The owner is so funny and kind! He definitely knows his stuff! This dude has like the whole craft store in here and I'm just like, 'Michael's Craft Store who?' Sorry, I'ma have to go here every day after school instead of Michael's. It's cheaper and honestly the people here are so chill. 100% would recommend! (Thanks for the Mitsu-Bishi pencil, my guy. I'll come back with more money like I promised!)”

“Everyone is so kind here!! Their shop is delightfully packed with wonderful things! I can walk in with a vague idea and find the things I need to bring it into fruition. Staff is knowledgable and helpful. I really look forward to coming in and using what I find! I'd rather spend my money at this business than at a Target any day.”
“TALAS is an excellent company, run by kind, smart, helpful people who care about the products they sell. I have worked with them for many years, and think of turning to no one else when I have a technical materials issues and/or when I need to source the best and conservation-level approved products. They are the best.”
“I gotta say this place is a time capsule it has really cool old school trucks, trains, busses, boats, planes and anime stuff too like Gundum star track star wars etc... and the old man is really cool... soo go there and show some love.”

They also have all the shipping supplies you need in store. Plus art, office and much more supplies for sale. Highly recommend their services, they will go above and beyond any FedEx, UPS or USPS store.”

“Always a pleasure to visit this store. The staff are incredibly helpful, community focused, and dedicated to building a welcoming space.
If you don't see it on the shelves, they can often order supplies for you.”
“Best toy store and craft store where you can art supplies, celebratory balloons, poster boards etc…! The employee that day was super helpful! He helped me pick out a celebratory balloon, and was very knowledgeable on selecting toys for a newborn :) 10/10 will always come here for any supplies and craft shopping I need. Support local businesses!”
“Love stopping by this neighborhood shop. Great selection of all kinds of puzzles, art supplies, stationery, and small toys.
Nice place to browse creative items. Everything feels well chosen. Thanks for being here!”
“One of my favorite places to visit as an artist the employees here really know what they’re doing with their pigments, and the selection is so beautiful and easy to walk in and purchase. I can’t wait to mix my colors using the advice that they gave me.”
“Stopped in to get a frame and was helped by Jeremy. He was so helpful and patient as we looked through various frames together. He even helped me put the wire on the frame. Glad I went into the store instead of trying to order online!”
“I would like to extend a huge shout out to the team at BLICK for helping me Get my pieces ready for art expo, New York last month. My recent trip there was incredible, but also very nerve-racking, Raluca, Nina, and Jessica Saved the day by hitting the ground running on a last-minute request I had. I literally called them from the airport to see if they were able to do some same day framing for me. Their ability to help me out, even though they had an extremely mounting workload already, Is a gift that I will never forget. Not only Where my piece is ready before the show, but the Craftsmanship was Flawless. The BLICK flagship store is one of the most beautiful establishments that I’ve ever walked into! I cannot wait to work with his team again, of course, with way more notice this time. I highly suggest visiting this location if you are ever in town or just live in New York. They really appreciate the arts, and there are some amazing artists there as well. Thank you again so much!!!!”
“I’m from Las Vegas but as I have had an extended work trip, I’ve been so grateful to have access to Blicks and staff is so friendly and helpful! Keeping my creativity alive while I experience the grind of the city has been imperative. ESSENTIAL BUSINESS!!”
“Very cool little shop. Was able to get some stamps made in just a couple minutes from the book of pre made stamps. Good price for such a cool little piece of a dying art.”
“I’m a long-time customer of Guerra Paint and Pigment. The materials they sell are superb and really allow me freedom to expand creativity in my painting. The owners and staff are equally wonderful. I make a point to make an in-person pilgrimage whenever I’m in NYC. Highly recommended.”
