Gilbert LewApril 13, 2013Locally owned and operated since 1938. Art supplies, frames, stationary, paper, kid's stuff, gifts, fine pens, albums, and journals.
Ashley MowreyNovember 21, 2014Use your student discount, don't forget to bring your ID. I'm not really impressed by their selection of paint brushes, but I appreciate their paper and notebook selection.
Stephanie LivingstonAugust 2, 2015Very cool art supplies store. Wow. So much to look at. Lots of great handmade papers.
Thomas ParisotAugust 12, 2016Good choice of paper sheets although the shop mainly moved to Fort Mason and Oakland.
Joey MarquartMay 22, 2015Ask for help if you need it. If you tell them your vision, they'll offer advice and creativity.
Jenny WNovember 12, 2013Canvas are always 50% off! Canvas pads n acrylic pads available. A crafter's dream. No longer caries plexiglass.
I really don't like their policy of holding bags. It is rude. LP is the responsibility of the business, not the consumer. They can be hit or miss on prices - but good variety of markers and paper.
