DeSerres Halifax is a wonderful store with a great downtown location, close to the local art school and on major bus routes. It offers a great and huge selection of art supplies and other items for artists and creators of all types, from drawing and crafting to embroidery, calligraphy, and miniature houses. You can get everything you want here, and it also provides framing services. While some note the prices are a little higher and express concern over the end of a rewards program, it is described as the best store in Halifax for art supplies and a paradise for people of art, with great staff. Parking includes street parking and a pay lot across the street.
Great art place. There's everything there that you might want. Friendly staff

A nice art supply store, a great selection of a variety of mediums. Some stuff is pricey but most things have a budget friendly version. A great place to find gifts for people as well.

I have never had a bad experience at this DeSerres! Great help and friendly staff. It is primarily an art supply store but I also suggest dropping in if you are into crafts or wargaming!
I am super bad for forgetting something and having to duck back in, and I have never been judged once.
