Great selection & craft staff knows their stuff. Do yourself a favor; get gift box elsewhere. Staff on 4th knows nothing about complimentary boxes for purchases mentioned by 1st floor & rude about it
JannieFebruary 17, 2013Beautiful lamps and they have a toy store in the upper level - great gifts and little knick knacks - my source of my calligraphy tools!
Paulette OsborneDecember 23, 2015make sure you hit all the floors. so much to see and buy. great place for craft projects.
Admin AdminNovember 29, 2012Here's a stocking stuffer idea: An autographed copy of this year's Zagat 2013 NYC Restaurants Guide! Meet Tim Zagat at Lee's Art Shop on Thursday, Nov. 29 from 2-4pm!
Monica CullenJune 26, 2015They have really fun cards for different occasions. A nice alternative to purchasing a Hallmark card.
Joshua KeayNovember 21, 2014The escalators only go up, so either you take the elevator downstairs or you can practice running down moving stairs (my preference!)
Harumi UDecember 23, 2014As far as art supplies or cute gift goes, when all fail, count on this store
This place is kitschy crafty. If you're an actual practicing artist there's no need to come here unless you live nearby and need something ASAP.
Patrice WhiteOctober 22, 2011They take your bookbags from you, guy at door made me feel like Al-Qaeda!:( Otherwise, check out the Swarovski chandeliers upstairs!
Wide variety of supplies. Directly across the street from the Art Students League. They are expensive but they do have astudent/teacher discount. Sadly return policy is store credit or exchange only.
John KarrelFebruary 26, 2010Great browsing, and for spontaneous gifts. Try to leave without buying more than one thing. Read more
Megan McGillivrayOctober 25, 2014Great items but seriously the worst customer service ever. Everyone who works there needs a serious attitude adjustment.
