Blick Art Materials

Providences hidden gem. I have lived here in RI my entire life and until I saw an ad online I had no idea Blick Arts was here. I took my daughter and it is amazing. The people are really friendly and knowledgeable. I highly recommend it.

All three woman were very knowledgeable and incredibly friendly yesterday. Would highly recommend going there for supplies. Thank you for entertaining Sonya!

Polly was of great help!! Got sent here by my mother to pick her up some items, and I know absolutely nothing about art stuff. Polly greeted me as soon as I walked in, and was able to grab me everything I needed. Was patient with me while I waited for my mothers response, and even went into the back to grab a specific item. Amazing customer service! Thank you Polly!!

Amazing staff that is always helpful! The selection is great! Even when/if products aren't in stock, the staff is quick and accurate with substitutions/alternatives. I love that Blick offers a student discount. It has been a nice chunk of savings (that seems to add up quickly) each semester. Thank you!

Always a great place to pop in. They usually have exactly what we're looking for, and the staff at this location are always so nice and helpful.

5 stars only. Affordable prices, friendly stuff, good staff on shells

Super friendly staff; got exactly what I needed! They also offer a discount for teachers!

Easy access off RT 195 - this place has it all. Located near RISD and Brown University. Blick has a selection of quality papers sketching materials and all the pens and inks and brushes you would require. They have Clay and oil paint frames and several kits for a younger artist. They are right across from the coffee exchange on Wickenden Street in Providence Rhode Island.

A great place for RISD students! Or any art student for that matter as they have a wide variety of selections of good quality art supplies and way cheaper than the RISD store! Even after the student discount!

Worth the extra walk, or drive!

The absolute best selection of art supplies around, I would steer clear of the RISD store for its markups. Staff is always knowledgeable and helpful here.

This is a great art store. While they may not have everything, they do have quite a lot of supplies. The parking lot is small and had no room this day I came here, but I found plenty of on street parking, and there are several side streets near by. I was greeted the instant I stepped in the door and was directed to where I needed to go. I needed some oil paint supplies, and they had 95% of what I needed. The staff is very friendly and occasionally checks in on you if you look lost, which is great in my opinion, and the store is clean and well lit. I recommend this store all day and will be back for sure!

I go there all the time, they have everything I need. The people are super friendly and welcome you with a smile when you walk in the door and are open to any questions you have. I go there for the great deals on markers and paints. They also have good prices for their graphite, Tom bow markers, colored pencils, and so much more. Awesome place for any artist!

This is a great art supply shop that my dad frequents a lot for paints, pencils, etc. While I wish I were an artist, I enjoy tagging along for their amazing speciality pen selection. I love that you can buy in singles and can find unique styles and colors you can't find elsewhere.

I was helped from the moment I walked in and everyone wore masks. The employees would check on me and I also noticed other customers to make sure we were comfortable in finding what we needed. I remember in particular one employee by the name of Sophie who was able to answer all of my questions and direct me to what supplies would be best for what I am looking for. All of the employees were great this morning I just wish I could remember all of their names, I am bad with names, to thank them for the help.

If you need anything do start or finish you art project, this is the place to come and get what you need, great price and the service is fabulous

Very cool store! Super friendly & really helpful staff. They really took the time to help my 13 y/o son about sketching pencils The store was clean and the set up was eye catching. I really enjoyed browsing their markdown & book sections. I totally recommend Blick Art!

Great balance of professional, abstract and urban art supplies

My favorite place for art supplies. Staff is extremely knowledgeable and willing to help with any advice. Prices can vary but there's usually some pretty good sale items. It's a great place for restocking your supplies or even just browsing. Easy to get to, small parking area next to the building as well as street parking.

A nice little art supply store.

Blicks in Providence has an amazing panoply of art supplies at very good prices. I shop here with confidence that I can find what I need and also see the newest products. It's a small shop but I like that it isn't overwhelming with aisles and aisles. The shelves are highly organized with friendly and knowledgeable staff to help if you have a question.
