They are moving to south Tejon! Waiting to see new store. Great supply choices for artists and crafters.

Final days of old location. Some display fixtures were on sale in addition to the always great supply selection. Friendly and Knowledgeable staff.

Friendly and knowledgeable staff always lets us browse without feeling rushed, but still right there for any questions. Great selection for a lot of things I cant get anywhere else locally, and its always nice to walk into that familiar smell of art supplies.

Good selection of high quality art supplies for different mediums and every skill level. Not as cheap as Amazon, but still reasonably priced. I like supporting local business to keep the community healthy.

Such an excellent location. The only drawback is the impact on the wallet - maybe not from the prices but how much you will want to pick up! Lots and lots of variety and all very high quality products. Best art supplies store in the city and maybe even the state.

While the store is great for having a great quantity of art supplies for the area, the prices are a bit high. I mostly buy online, but if I need something right away they are the place to go to. I am sad to say they do have a tendency to profile some of their customers, particularly ones they do not know. It is somewhat understandable considering the area they are in is a bit sketchy. However, they should not profile the customers that help keep their business going.

Awesome art supply store with a wide range of mediums and products for every range of artist. Lovely fountain pen and ink selection, which is kind of difficult to find in the area.

Micheals who? Hobby lobby who? Highly recommend this place youll forget the others. They have all😍

Awesome, friendly service and they have everything you could possibly need, including professional spray paint.

Great place for art supplies in CS. Would highly recommend them

Meiningers has what the chain stores do not for the serious artist or those just starting their journey. They have high-quality paints, brushes, and canvases, not to mention all of the other supplies such as artists pencils, charcoal, and 3D art products. As far as expense is concerned, Meiningers has better prices on like items you would find in the chain art supply stores - the high priced items are those made of expensive materials, such as artist-grade paints with rare pigments. Its not that Meiningers prices are high - they just sell really expensive, gold standard paints and supplies alongside the student-grade versions. Its a fantastic store, and Ive learned a lot just browsing their aisles. I highly recommend Meiningers.

This is where I buy my art supplies! The best quality and variety for any creative project!

This is one of the best (if not The Best) and most complete art supply & accessory stores I have ever visited/seen. The staff is both friendly and very knowledgeable.

Golden, friendly educated staff, cheap art supplies, huge selections. All around best art supply store in town

Shout out to Dexter and Anastasia.They were dedicated and knowledgible in helping me troubleshoot my airbrush. This store has great inventory, and Ill be going back for sure.

Super friendly and helpful staff and they have everything I need!

Well stocked with all sorts of media supplies! lots of parking too!

I drove an hour and a half to this store for help picking art supplies. I was allowed into the store by a masked person but was soon confronted by another masked person and asked to put on a mask. I do not wear masks for medical reasons that was/is allowed by Gov. Polis. I offered to put on a clear shield and they would not allow this. I am a senior citizen. Mask wearing is a mandate it is not a law and it is clearly debatable that they even work! I was not closer than 6 to any person! I am an American Citizen with rights by the constitution of the United States. I wanted to be your customer but clearly you dont need or want my business!

The best selection of art supplies in town. Colors and mediums you wont find anywhere else.

My children have grown up visiting this store. We wont shop anywhere else because we dont need to

Great store, great supply. Get your art stuff here!

Very helpful employees, and everything you could need for art.

This is one of my favorite places in colorado springs and denver💗 they have almost every brand and they have told me if they dont have it they can order. They are are always kind and answer all my questions 😊❤

Always a pleasure to shop at Meiningers. The staff are always helpful, professional, and knowledgeable. The store is clean, organized, and has a wide variety of supplies. Even the customers are friendly. I do not get the opportunity to shop there frequently, but I do make it my priority store for whenever I do need any kind of art supplies.

Love the selection. Staff is super knowledgeable about what they carry.

Wonderful little store! Lots of experienced artists working there to guide you around and a very nice and wide selection of good brand art supplies.

A great spot for so many art supply needs! Im glad theres an art store so centrally located.

Lots and lots of fun art supplies.

I didnt have enough time to appreciate all the delicious at supplies here! Cant wait to get back when I have time!

Oh my gosh I had honestly forgotten that local art shops existed because im so used to just going to Joannes or Michaels but I will never go back after coming to meininger!!! They have so much quality selection, the staff are so incredibly kind and knowledgable, and always being bad influences by suggesting product they KNOW ill want to buy next time Im in. This place just feels like peace and creativity. Thank you for everything you are and everything you all do!! Art has kept me sane through this crazy last few months.

Love their selection! Limit on people in the store is 6 people(1/23/21) so there may be a bit of a wait but it is worth it.

Amazing! An artist dream place!

This place has everything you need to, paint, ink, draw with pens pencil color or graphite.The people are great.

This location, while smaller, has a fantastic customer experience. The Denver store is better as far as selection, but I was blown away by the amount of supplies at this location.The amount of help was great as well. Have never had a bad experience at this location. Mad props guys. Keep it up!

Best (only?) artist supply store in the Springs. Good selection of paints, pens, notebooks etc. Super friendly helpful staff.

Well organized and not over priced for the quality products they offer

This place is amazing I only wish I would have found it sooner

This is our go to location for high quality art supplies. My son is an artist and he always wants to get the best supplies. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly. Their inventory is always stocked full and they have cool things all the time that surprise us! It’s a fun experience to shop here.

Amazing supply store. Lots of great stuff.

Meiningers has fantastic customer service. They have whimsical items along with the traditional art supplies. They also take COVID-19 seriously and are following excellent! protocol to keep everyone safe.

The store has a neat and humble atmosphere. They have a good section of supplies and its easy to navigate through. Thats the good.The reason for a 3 star. I usually only go there reluctantly. The staff are friendly once you get to the counter but not that knowable and never have I been there has anyone helped us on the floor on their own. Its way too expensive for things you can get online usually. But its the only art specific store around, so I guess they can get away with a lot because of convenience.

They had in stock what I wanted and they were as helpful as could be. Well done Alix.

After reading some of the negative reviews, decided to take a chance and visit the Colorado Springs store. The customer service was exceptional, at least 3 people asked to help me and checked back to make sure I was finding everything. All my questions were answered. Although this store doesn’t carry alot of bookbinding supplies, I was able to find several needed items. Will definitely return!

Limited sculpture supplies and tools.

We had purchased painting supplies at Michaels the night before, but they didnt have everything that we needed. Meiningers had everything and it was 30% cheaper. Definitely wish that we had gone here first. Highly recommend, especially when you consider how helpful their staff is.

This place is the best Ive found in town for all of my art needs. The staff is always willing to assist where they can and find a resource for me if they cant.

Good selection, your able to test a lot of the items and good knowledgeable service.

Great selection, always has what I want and more.

Very helpful staff, great at supplies.

A diverse and great selection of high quality art supplies for many mediums, even though its a small store

Wide selection of products and amazing customer service. The staff know their products. I saw a customer ask about the quality of a product and they tested the product for him so he could see if he wanted it or not. Amazing service in my book. Friendly, kind. The products may be a bit hard to find (grouping is a bit weird) but you can always ask and they will take you directly to the area of the shop.

I used to love going to their Denver store, with my grandparents, when I was a kiddo. I just love art supplies, and have always felt more at ease, surrounded by the sights and smells that I associate with both them and activities I enjoy quite a bit. The prices could be worse (believe me, Ive seen it) but they could be much better. I was slightly upset at this visit. Although, the staff didnt ever vocalize their assumption that I was there to pocket items, their actions did little to indicate anything else. Thank goodness, I wasnt stalked through the store. I would have been highly upset, had I been. Nonetheless, I was slightly offended by their negative judgement passed against me. Aside from this, their selection was amazing, like usual. And the staff was knowledgeable, and provided helpful information concerning a medium I have very little experience with.

Wonderful little art supply shop with very friendly and knowledgable staff. As an artist/illustrator this has been my my one stop shop for for nearly 12 years, for hard to find art/obscure supplies. They have a plethora of product variety for artists of all kinds and continually update their stock with new products. I highly recommend this store, as its the only one of its kind in the area as currently the only other H.R. Meininger location is in Denver.If youre familiar with art, then you know that supplies arent known to be cheap, so prices vary depending on the supplies youre looking for but for the most part they stay in line with other similar retailers in their pricing and sometimes its even lower.If I had to give any feedback, its that I wish this location was much larger to accomidate and expand even more on their selection. Otherwise amazing shop!

We love this place. So much creativeness and cool stuff. My wife is getting into lettering and found more than adequate supplies here. The staff is really friendly and helpful. 5 stars for sure!

I love this place! I can always find what I need for my art projects, the staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Better watch out or might just move in :P

Usually I have a great experience at this store, lately though the staff has been extremely rude to me. Tonight as I entered the store, Terry (one of the workers) Approached me before I had a chance to look at anything, and informed me that they were asking all guests to place purses behind the counter. I agreed with no hesitation, even though I saw other customers that didn’t have to follow this rule. I was completely humiliated, and when I realized she was profiling me, and singled me out, I rushed out of the store. My intentions were to make a large purchase for a project I am doing. After she singled me out and profiled me by my appearance, I decided that I should spend my money elsewhere. I give this place 1 star strictly because of her.

Fair amount of items for the artist, drafter, and pen geek.

Fantastic experience today! Looked high and low at 3 different “craft/art” stores in the Springs area today for 4 or 6ply matboards. Was very discouraged. Other stores didn’t even know the difference between 2 & 4ply, looked at me like I was crazy.Made the trip downtown, to Meininger’s and was greeted with awesome/friendly and knowledgeable service. Had a great selection of exactly what I needed. Sales rep even let me look behind the counter with her! Should have just started here! I’ve shopped at the Denver and Boulder stores plenty of times, but today was hands down the best shopping experience I’ve had! Cannot thank you enough!

Excellent art supply store with all the necessities (and then some) for the most novice to expert of artists. Peruse through the store and notice the variety of mediums available to experiment with, all at different price points.Additionally, the staff is extremely helpful and will either point you in the right direction or render one of their services to you (paper cutting, etc.).Great location with plenty of parking, exterior of store gives off an artsy vibe when driving past. Would recommend to anyone wanting to get into ore are into various art forms.

Great prices! Have everything you could need for any type of art. Staff is very helpful, but could try a smile. Store is well organized and everything is very clean. Highly recommend.

This place is cool because its a small at shop, but their prices are way higher than the box stores. Some items that you cant find elsewhere though, like a full line of Golden brand acrylic resins. So, its all good. I usually only go there if Im already downtown.

Everything any artist needs! The prices are great. Staff are kind and helpful and most importantly its locally owned so I prefer to go here before checking out any other craft stores in town!

Very cool store with everything you need. Staff is very helpful as well!

Large, diverse supply of all different types of art styles and mediums. Havent gotten too much from here, but what I have gotten was cheaper than any other store. Helpful staff. So far; my one stop shop for all my art supplies, except tattoo ink and needles lol

When you have a creative idea that you want to make happen, get your materials here. They will be slightly more expensive than the big box store is for similar supplies, but what you get in return more than makes up for it. The associates who work there will answer question, point you in the right directions, make sure you are getting the supplies you need to be successful or offer a different route. The results are that you dont buy things you dont need and product has a far better chance of coming out how you want it.

Excellent service, excellent selection. I found everything I was looking for and was able to order the things they didnt have in store. I got those things the next day. Staff is extremely helpful and friendly. Great store. Top notch.

Fantastic!! best art store i’ve been in the springs, they have everything you could ever want for all forms of art. will definitely be coming back

I love this place, the people are always friendly and helpful and they have a great selection of art supplies.

Great product and staff. Only issue is some products seem overpriced compared to other places. The staff do seem to understand, and will help you find alternatives.

Very wide selection of art products including many which were new to me. I found it quite easy to get lost in this store for hours and hours if you are into art or drawing, painting, sculpting, architecture, engineering diagrams... etc. The only downside is the prices are quite a bit higher than online or larger chain stores... but that’s to be expected and I have found that some speciality products are worth the extra money to be able to see certain colors and such in person... a computer screen really can’t render them properly or do them the justice they deserve.

I had a wonderful experience! The staff were very helpful and friendly. They have just about everything an an artist could want. I will definitely go back.

They have most anything you could want in art supplies. The prices are reasonable and the staff is very friendly. I prefer to support a local company rather than a big box store like Hobby Lobby orMichaels.

Nice store. I was a little confused in the back corner.

My first time in this place. Absolutely love it! Budget friendly, the staff was tremendously helpful, and they have an abundance of supplies! Making this my go to art store!

I am a local artist. I have a wholesale account with Speedball and I still find myself shopping here to get the supplies that I need. The staff can be very helpful with finding the right tool for the jobThis place has a bit of everything for the artist. Pens paper inks paint potter sculpting ceramics and mold making to name a few. If you have a creative mind you are sure to find something you need.Prices are goodStaff is helpfulLocated close to downtown.

They have all the art supplies you could dream of and a kind, knowledgeable staff. A little pricey, but for great quality

This is a great place to get art supplies from. Great staff. Great prices.

Impossible to feel better about this very home-like business.The employees are artists and are capable of expert help; experienced suggestions & honest personal reviews. The diversity of stock is a universe of mediums & many product lines within each. Very fair and affordable pricing.

Wonderful, knowledgeable, helpful staff. They have an impressive variety of high quality art supplies. Beautiful pastels. Fabulous pencils and leads Must come back!

Im an artist, so yeah this place is great it has all kinds of stuff I love. 😍

Cool little local shop, big focus on painting mediums, as well as sketch. The staff was super helpful and the store was well organized!

Great high quality arts and craft supplies. My artist daughters favorite place to shop for Copic markers and different paper. Little pricey, but better quality than the chain craft stores. We have been customers for years and probably for years to come.

I love art stores! Is small, but they have most everything you need and the help is friendly and know their stuff.

Has a LOT of options for art supplies, before going online stop in!I always prefer in store art purchases for in case you have to make returns, i dont want to return it by mail.Dont forget to go downstairs to check all the canvas materials and the easels. But you cant take anything down with you! That way you cant steal

Staff is knowledgeable, friendly, and their selection and price are great. Honestly, its surprising how much theyve crammed into that little store. Their drawing tools and illustration media are great. I was so happy to find somewhere that sold crow quill holders and nibs after searching Michaels and Hobby Lobby (which are nothing but disappointing on a constant basis).Their selection of Micron Pens was impressive. Ill keep going back here and want to find some time to eventually stop by and pick up some illustration board. Their prices on just about all of their illustration media was MUCH lower than either chain store I visited.

I LOVE this store. Its dangerous because I will go broke here 😂 they have both lower quality and higher quality materials. Even some cute craft stuff for kids at the front of the store. Lots of options, so far Ive bought copic markers, drawing paper, pens, oil paints, gamblin linseed oil, gel pens, and paint brushes here and have yet to be disappointed with any of it. Im glad I have somewhere local I can shop for good art supplies 😊

Nice store. We spent quite a bit of time and a couple of hundred dollars our first visit. The second time we went in there one of the employees asked for my wife to put her purse behind the counter after already being in the store for bit. Weird considering we didn’t do that our first visit the day prior. Silly policy for theft prevention especially when it isn’t enforced all of the time. We were planning to spend a lot again but decided to leave instead. I don’t think we will be returning. I can purchase all of this product online for cheaper and not have to hand over a thousand dollar purse. This company should take a course on risk mitigation strategies that don’t involve customers handing over their personal belongings.

My go to place for specialty and pro art supplies. It’s fun to look around at all the unique items. All the staff is very informative, kind and helpful.

Our new favorite art supply store. Tons of variety and great prices. Employees were all welcoming, friendly, and helpful.

Awesome one of my favorite locations on a planet nice helpful kind good people

This is the only place you need to go for art supplies. They are well-stocked in everything art related, and if they dont have it, they will order it for you. The employees are incredibly knowledgeable on the products they sell, and if they arent, theyll get someone who is. Most products are priced below MSRP, and they have two bi-annual sales that promise good deals.Just know that they will not accept returns on any opened item, unless the product is clearly defective. This is fine for open stock pencils, pens, pastels, etc, since you can try before you buy. If you are unsatisfied with a product, however, they will not accept it if it has been opened. So, just know that if youre trying something new, you will be stuck with it, whether you like it or not.

Great place for an artist to get supplies, they have all sorts of stuff for all sorts of mediums. An entire isle of Golden paints!! Cheap lino for print makers! Go there, you wont be disappointed!

Friendly staff, good supplies. If you have a backpack, they do ask that you turn it in at the front desk until you check out/leave.

Shopped here many times over 20yrs. Superior goods and selections. Quiet and relaxing store. Expensive, but the selections are top quality. Staff are ok, but nothing to rave about. My 5 stars are for quality of goods in the store.

Its okay. They have lots of art supplies that I need their prices are list prices for the most part. I go there because I know theyll have what I need.

Every time I visit the shop everyone is friendly and very helpful. They have a wide variety of material, and prices are affordable. I highly recommend this place for your art supplies!

Best art supply store in the Springs. Friendly and helpful customer service, and if they dont have what you need now, theyre always willing to place orders for you and notify you when your product comes in. Great layout, and easily accessible items.

Outstanding! Quality stock. There is EVERYTHING in this store for any type of artist. Helpful staff.Easy to get to, lots of parking. You must go see this store.

As someone who looks like they have no business in an arts and crafts store. The employees had no prejudice. They treated me like a regular. Will definitely be buying all my supplies from there.

In the colorado springs store : Dexter was very complimentary, to a beginning water colorist. we have been to Meiningers numerous times and he has been very kind and helpful every time. he also seems to be very knowledgeable and pointed us in the right direction.
