Artist & Craftsman Supply North Boston

this place is amazing. most friendly and knowledgable staff, wide variety of supplies, and they are dog friendly! i could spend hours in there :)

Chris was so informative. He gave me tips and tricks on the art. Answered all my questions (and i had a lot) helped me pick out the best paint brush. I was just really impressed at how imformative he was and how patient he was! Great customer service hands down!

This place Rocks! Every couple of months I come down from NH because I cannot find the quality of supplies around here. The staff is always polite and helpful. The variety and amount of supplies is superb!

I live in north central MA so making the trip on a Sunday to this store was not a fun endeavor. But then we got to the store and spent easily a couple of hours browsing. There is a lot of everything, a lot of options and the staff was so friendly and very helpful, even going above and beyond to make suggestions. Definitely coming back. Thank you so much.

They always have what I need. I only wish they still had a Boston/ Cambridge location

Best spot to shop for your serious (or just for fun) art supplies. Staff are consistently courteous, helpful, and friendly. Being in this store is such a wonderful experience.

Excellent selection and great value. Everyone here is extremely helpful. I’ve bought art supplies (or been gifted them) from here for years. The store is very easy to navigate and a joy to explore. They have a fun selection of postcards as well.

My first time visiting, but definitely won't be my last. Spent a good 20 minutes discussing my custom build a bears. Amazing staff! Super friendly and very helpful!!

All the best art supplies for specific needs (professional artist or serious hobbyist), but without the box-store-overload feeling I get at Michaels. Plus, whatever medium you're working in, the staff have at least heard of it. They may not be experts in everything, but asking about "non-toxic water-based adhesive sizing for gilding on ceramic" won't get you a blank stare.

Are you kidding me!?!? I stopped by this place because I was so desperate looking for a specific type of paint. I was so pumped seeing every single thing inside. There are more than I imagined! They were supposed to close around 6 or 7 on Sunday but I ended up spend more time in there. The assistant manager was so nice and he was like Please take your time. Soooo I ended up spending like $100 in an hour. I’m so happy I found a new art and craft supply place!!

Excellent selection of products and wonderfully helpful staff. I would definitely recommend a visit!

I've been here numerous times. I go in for 1 thing and come out with 5. The employees are super willing to be helpful but also cool with not trying to become your shadow. Their prices are very competitive and the selection is great.

Great place to shop for art supplies.
Also I am a teacher and I frequently buy rewards for students here; they have an excellent selection of potential reward items.

Well, I brought in a short list of materials for simple marker drawing. I received a cheerful welcome and focused attention on and informative review of a variety of pens, their applications and strengths. I LOVE the fun gadgets, toys, magnets, puppets, buttons! So, of course, I added them to my $100 bag. And, I'll be back! (I am so glad our Saugus store was NOT a Covid casualty.)

This is a pretty well-stocked art store. We were here because my wife was looking for watercolor supplies and they carry some brand of paint that is extra fancy and most places don't have so that was why we stopped. They have a ton of other stuff though. I doubt there's a craft or art activity that you couldn't find supplies for here. And the staff was very helpful.

Staff are all super-friendly and helpful. Prices are just a wee bit higher than online, but it's worth it to have a local place to get supplies

This place is AMAZING! Everything an artist needs at great prices! Huge selection of foamcore, craft paper, paperboard, cardboard, pastels, and about a million other things. Everyone was so helpful and friendly! I found what I needed and then some.

Great prices and in stock items. An artists or crafters dream, just wish the employees tried to look busy instead of playing with their phones

Always a great place for art supplies and great service! Also, just realized this time they are dog friendly! Awesome!

Great store. Staff is very helpful and friendly. They will remember you face and are all locals who know art. Have most items you could need for art school and and many specials make the trip out here worth it for their sales.
