I was really excited to visit this store because I’ve only ever shopped online. I have to tell you I was a bit disappointed. It’s in a very busy area downtown, and you do have to pay for parking. I will warn you, the parking lot is highly monitored, and if you don’t pay you will get a ticket. The few times that I have visited the store I always see an attendant ticketing cars in the lot across the street next to Dunkin’ Donuts. I don’t find the staff here to be overly helpful, and I can say with certainty there are a couple people who have very limited knowledge on certain products, which I found to be surprising for a specialty art store.

Read moreI love visiting this art store. It's in a great location in the heart of Midtown Atlanta. The staff is super cool and is always eager to assist and answer questions. Custom framing is a fairly new service for this store, and the options are massive. Sam is usually in the frame shop. He's awesome and so easy to chat with. Whether you're a beginner or experienced artist, this is the spot! I appreciate the value packs on wrapped canvases. During my last visit, I was assisted by an associate named Leni. She was so friendly and helpful. I also noticed some cool layout changes to this store. The store manager, Declan, is outstanding and leads an amazing team. It's worth mentioning there's a Starbucks and Dunkins directly...
