This place is an artists or crafters dream. Lots of materials, and even toys. Go and you will be inspired. I really appreciated the teachers discount. It wasnt particularly easy to find and the space itself is a bit dark, but it was well worth the trip and effort.
Incredibly kind and accommodating staff. So many different at supplies and crafts. There are very few things they dont carry (imo). Love this place!
This is my favorite spot in downtown Charleston! I grew up near this area, so Ive seen a decent bit of the city. As someone whos not a tourist and enjoys art, this was my favorite spot. It has a little bit of a hole-in-the-wall feel, or in this case, under the ground I suppose, and its a gem. Great selection of quality art supplies, not the least of which is the beautiful selection of specialty papers. Even if youre not really into art, its fun to just look around at the eclectic array of things they have. Friendly staff, and overall just good vibes. :) 10/10 recommend
Everyone in the store was so helpful. The best selection of art supplies and adorable greeting cards Ive found in Charleston.
I love this art store. They have very helpful staff. Good selection of paints, brushes and everything you need to make your ideas come to life.
Awesome store. I am not an artist but this place was great. Tons of fun unique stuff to look at. Things Ive definitely never seen anywhere else. Great place to buy gifts for people. And if you are an artist then great because this place has more art supplies than Ive ever seen before.
Super helpful staff and an awesome inventory housed in a funky (in a good way) building😉.
I love this place. The staff is helpful, energetic and very pleasant. If you are into arts and crafts, this place is one of the best places to browse or buy. The atmosphere is quite unique, conducive to adding to the whole creative process. Staff is helpful; inventory plentiful. This is a unique place that fosters further your creativity. Laid back, impressive stock, helpful and pleasant employees. If you are tired of chain craft stores, youll be glad you decided on this store.
Wonderful. Always so organized and has an incredible selection for a small business. The staff are so helpful and always kind. A great place to use your money in your own community.
Knowledgeable staff who are willing to walk through store and assist you.
Always a great experience, knowledgeable works and helpful friendly and adorable.
Sooo expensive but the staff is nice amd you can find pretty much anything you need!
After you “scold” someone for not wearing a mask in your store (and making a comment after the person left the store) you should really be careful that no one from his party was still in the store. I had been in the store ( probably about 10 minutes already with NO mask) about to purchase some handmade paper when I heard your cashiers comment after my husband said he would spend his money elsewhere. Your cashiers comment was (after my husband walked out) “yeah good luck with that” and her coworkers continued to talk disrespectful of my husband for not wearing his mask. Just an FYI....we had NO problem spending our money in several shops downtownTerrible customer service when you treat a customer so rudely when they walk out.
Lots of cool stuff! 😃
What a fun shop. Had alot of niche things as well as a comprehensive collection of supplies. Lots of options.
Took my little sister whos a artist had fun great service and a lot of variety of items to choose from.
Understand policy, but if masks are mandatory, post it online. Save me a trip to your store. Delivery of this info was also just rude. Ill shop at blick.com
My favorite spot in Charleston for art supplies. Staff is always VERY friendly and knowledgeable. Decent prices, excellent selection. Highly recommended!
Great supply store. They have a great selection of the basics and a fairly good selection of unique and uncommon goods. Staff are always present and willing to help accommodate.
My girlfriend and I were at the Marian sq location and had a wonderful experience. Karen was kind, friendly and very helpful. We left happy and satisfied with our purchases. We will definitely be back.
Great selection of arts & craft supplies
Best art store around! Worth the drive to downtown hands down. They have almost everything you need for any art project, along with super knowledgeable staff. One of the staff members spent almost 10 minutes directing me in the right direction with acrylics for air brushes and pointed me to the thermostat plastics they carry as well.
I had such a great experience! Zack and Vic were so helpful and so kind to me! I felt so good about my daughters project and totally supported! So great to have an art supply store this special! Great inventory too! Omg! Just the best experience!!! Thank
One of our favorite family spots. So many amazing things from trinkets to the exact supply you need to create your work of art.
This store has great arts supplies, crafts and other misc. (Crystals, pens)
Helpful staff, fair prices, & more than just art supplies, A&CS is my go-to shop for all things project related. Fantastic shop!
Looking for art supplies? Done. Unusual gifts? Done. Favorite art store in town. Staff friendly and helpful. And then theres the kitty!
I am trying to pick up a new hobby and this store is stocked to the brim. They had everything I needed and had very knowledgable staff. They also have events going on in store, when I walked in it was making gift wrapping. Very pleasant and fun looking store.
The best place to get art supplies and the people that work there are working artists themselves and have so much skill and knowledge to help with any questions or inspiration.
Love this place. Great for art supplies of course but also a good spot to find really unique gifts. The employees are super helpful as well and can help you find anything you need for an art project.
This place is amazing! They have worked really hard to make sure we were taken care of. They worked with us to be able to have a canvas to deliver and they were so pleasant to work with! I will definitely be making more purchases here.
This place is so cozy and fully stocked. Everyone that works there is so nice. Theres one guy that mansplains to EVERYONE but I can ignore him easily.
The best art supply had all I could dream of, and the staff was just great. Will be back wish we had in our town!
My favorite art supply store in all of Charleston! They literally have everything you could want or need, from 2D and 3D art materials to more obscure items like soap making. The staff is always super helpful and friendly, and they offer discounts for college students.
The people who work here absolutely love what they do and are an invaluable source of knowledge when it comes to all things art -- techniques, people, sources of inspo, material. Unique in both the physical spaces they occupy as well as their offerings. If you are an artist in, or visiting Charleston, consider both locations a must-see.
Very cool place, all sorts of supplies and options. Staff are cool people as well..will be back for future projects!
What an awesome place! Great people that put in the extra effort to make sure my niece got what she wanted. Also, Thanks for clearing the table so my wife can change my daughter in the back! You all rock. We will be back for sure.
They have everything for fine arts. Love going here. Great staff. Highly recommend.
Underground (literally and figuratively) arts store with a prime and robust selection of drawing utensils, tools, sketch pads, and canvases all cheaper the producer price. The selection also includes board games, nick-nacks and tiny sculptures/containers. The staff is always friendly and eager to help you find the perfect equipment for all your art endeavors. I would highly recommend.
Not sure what more you could want from an art supply store! They have absolutely everything you need and an incredibly kind and knowledgeable staff to help you find it! The only thing I can think to hold against the shop is that parking is an absolute nightmare (especially when College of Charleston is in), but thats not fair.
We came in visibly clueless shopping for a gift. The employees were very attentive and the one who helped us went above and beyond to make sure we got exactly what we needed. Very well stocked with a wider range of options than major crafts stores we went to, not to mention cheaper, with a student discount option (that wasnt even CofC exclusive!!). The location and the look of the shop is really cool as well.
I try to get in here as often as possible. Good, quirky selection of items. The atmosphere is great and the staff are helpful.
Nice helpful staff, you can find all of your professional grade equipment here
Great place for art supplies. The have hard to find items
Loved this place! I could wander the aisles for hours if they would let me! Unbelievable selection and variety with a very knowledgeable staff. Rikki (spelling?) Was reason enough to go back to the store! She knew the products that she was talking about, she listened to my (uneducated) input, she knew the business and she was as pleasant as she was helpful. Ill be back soon!
So much great stuff. Always go there when visiting. Functional supplies and eclectic items. Go,look and find!
Cute shop, went in for yarn where unfortunately their selection is kinda small but they still have a wide variety of other craft supplies.
This place would be where Michelangelo and da vinci would shop. Greatest shop in the city!
This is the best art supply store. I love it here.
I love this store. Its the BEST stock of professional art supplies anywhere. Trevor & Hernona are such art pros, they are fabulous! Karen Hewitt Hagan /Hagan Fine Art Gallery, 27 1/2 State St. Charleston SC
Fantastic selection. Friendly and knowledgeable help
It is an amazing store!!
The shelves are filled from floor to ceiling with everything you could ever need for any craft you could imagine. If only things were a little more organized, but you have to sort of expect a charming sense of clutter to a craft store
This place is incredible. They have the most awesome selection, and the people working there are BEYOND helpful. I wish every city had a place like this; Charleston is very lucky!
Great place for a gift, they have such a variety! I bought my friend some really pretty origami paper for a great price.
This is a great store, a necessary visit if you are an artist and you are in downtown Charleston. The staff is very friendly and helpful, and the store has everything. It is a really cool place to check out!
Great bargains on art supplies. Also, like the semi precious stones, like jade, that they sell there too.
Super helpful staff and fantastic deals. Great experience as always!
Great shop for paint and sketch supplies! There is some yarn and paper craft supplies, too. All it needs is fabric to be complete. 😁
Always enjoy coming here for supplies. Its hard not to want everything in here.
I loved this store! I was surprised to see the prices werent high despite the downtown location and the staff was so friendly. I will be back
Kids had a blast in this place. It was their favorite experience in Charleston!
Nice, friendly atmosphere, great customer service and everything youll ever need all in one place.
