Such great folks! The assistance offered was perfect. The availability of drafting materials needed and fun stuff for kids is wonderful. Why would anyone look elsewhere, they seem to have it all.
Loved this store! Outstanding staff, very kind, knowledgeable, friendly. Deep inventory of materials as well as just fun items. A must visit store!
This is a great store and Andrew was an absolute delight. He was very helpful in giving me the information I requested about a drafting table and even helped me disassemble it and pack it into my car. The other gentleman working (Im sorry, I forgot to ask his name.) who rang me up was also very kind and helpful. This was a fantastic experience. I also have had similarly good experiences at both of the Charleston SC locations. If you have an Artist & Craftsman in your area, you should absolutely use it.
I stopped in earlier today for a few supplies for a diy project. They had everything that I needed and several things that weren’t originally on my list. There’s a 15% educator’s discount as well. I happened to forget one of the items that I purchased at the counter and the cashier tracked me down at the bus stop to return it to me. I’ll definitely be coming back!
This is a wonderful art store. The employees are friendly and give good advice. They have a variety of materials and tools for your next masterpiece. Cute little section with cards, socks, kids toys, etc. It’s tucked back and easy to miss on the street but definitely worth checking out! Way better than the big box craft stores. Good prices and quality selection.
This is a great art supply store. They have a wonderful selection and the staff is really friendly and helpful.
First time stopping in today, looking for craft stuff for a imaginative 5 year old. Had everything and more we were looking for, prices were great and staff was super friendly and helpful, only walked though a small section of the store and cant wait to go back and check the rest out!
Great selection of professional and student level art materials. Friendly and helpful staff. Love this store!
Best little art shop dont drive to fast or you will miss it they are tiny but pack a punch with almost anything you can think to need for a project they have it they also offer cool discounts for teachers I use this store to get my items for custom sneakersFollow me on Instagram at custom_coveredqueen
A great little store, classic art store heavy on canvas and board creativity. Definitely worth a visit.
I wish I knew this place existed sooner but I’m so glad I did a Google search. Like most without having any work right now I wanted to learn to draw so I needed a sketchbook and pencils. Wanda was so nice and so friendly she spent a lot of time helping me pick out a pencil and educating me on the different types. My background is photography so this was all very new to me! I will definitely be going back for more art supplies!
What a very cool store tucked away in CH. They have some very good quality goods for crafting and artistry.
This is now my go to art supply store. Im an artist and art teacher living in Germantown and they always have what I need for my own personal use and for my students and my classroom. I also love the convenience of a local art supply store and not having to drive into Center City for quality art supplies.
Great selection of hard to find art supplies
My daughter is a professional artist who lives in the neighborhood of Germantown. So she normally has to travel a distance to get good quality art supplies. I told her about a new art store that opened in Chestnut Hill and she decided to check it out. When she came out of Artist & Craftsman the smile on her face was so big she started laughing! She was so happy and impressed with the store...this is now her go to supply store.
This store has an amazing variety of all kinds of arts and crafts tools. I was looking for a gift, so I asked for help since I didnt know anything about what I was looking for. An employee gladly took me through all possibilities for what I wanted, explaining the benefits of each product. Im very happy with my purchase and will definitely go here again!
Love this place for the whole family to keep our art hobby alive and well. I notice its also staffed well and can offer products to more serious artists 🎨.**10% discount for all students and teachers:)))
They have a good and varied selection of art supplies. Plus frames and some fun toys. The staff is friendly and knowledge. And the prices are very reasonable.
I cannot speak highly enough of this store and its employees. I live 14 hours away but occasionally visit PA and I always make sure I budget time and money to stop in. I teach high school art, and I purchase things here both for my classroom and my personal use. My favorite art store ever!
This is quite the little gem tucked back on a little driveway, the store is bigger than you would think. Come here for inspiration and high-quality art supplies. They have some nice ideas for gifts for budding artists as well.
This is an absolutely wonderful place! They have wayyy more than art supplies (but their art supplies are extensive.) If you go there to browse around, I guarantee you wont be able to tear yourself away in less than an hour. Kids and adults both love it. The selection of old-fashioned toys is so much fun. The whole store is. And staff is very helpful. I highly recommend this store.
Great store, wide selection, helpful staff. Stayed away during the pandemic, the time is right to shop in person again. So glad they’re still here!
One of the best art supply stores I have ever been in!!!I stopped going to the big chain stores when I found this place, their every day price is about the same as what I was paying at the big chains with a 50% off coupon!Their selection is amazing! So many brands, so many choices no matter what your media is!The staff are super helpful
Best small business for art supplies around. Always have little things for my projects and maybe some things you wouldn’t expect. Love the student/teacher discount, too.
Artist and Craftsman is a treasure. They carry everything from professional artist supplies, crafts, frames to unique toys. Just go there and look around. The store is a really interesting and you will be amazed at the variety of products.
I totally love this place! They have a variety of canvases and painting supplies. The owner is super friendly and they have %10 student discount!
Literally moved into my house because its in walking distance to this store.
Amazing selection of art supplies, cards, framing materials and unique and quirky gifts.
I just found this place today. Awesome location Chestnut Hill. I usually drive to Center City to pickup Angelus leather paints.They also carry the leather dyes too. So, this was a great find. Proper artist supplies, paper(s), canvas, drafting/drawing supplies,oil acylics,water paints. Several types of paint pens they even have Posco pens with different size tips! They carry supplies for different textile crafts too! Tyedye, printing, some knitting and leather crafts. Section of crafts to do with children. This is not like a box store. No flowers or potpourri. Great choices for expert and novices. Portfolios and archival storage too!l Lots of supplies and then some. I cant believe I just found this place today with a web search. Also, the staff is friendly and knowledgeable.FYI : its set back off the street between two buildings. So, you may drive past it--I did.
Service above and beyond! I needed some art supplies for my sanity and I could have just purchased online but Artist & Craftsman Supply is one store I really need in my neighborhood. I tracked down an email and reached out to the store. To my surprise and delight, Rob was able to track down everything I wanted and he delivered it too!
This is an artists dream store! Everything and anything you could want. Things you didnt even know existed! I go there for Angelus leather paints. They have an excellect color selection. The staff are great and are really helpful if you have any questions. It is recessed back from the street, so if you have pulled up at the address and cant find the place, rest assured, it is there between two other buildings tucked back in its courtyard nook!
Truley enjoyed wandering the aisles of this art store. Totally expected the serious artist supplies, ie canvass, paints etc. Was surprised by the supply of children kits and the section of retro toys. I was there for hand lettering supplies and they had an extensive amount of various type pens.
This chain of art supply shops is reliable! They have what I need more often than not and if they dont theyll order it for you. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable and ready to help.Im so glad this one has opened up, its closer to home so I can buy ( and actually transport) larger materials that I need.
While this store is a great asset to the neighborhood and the convenience of having an art store nearby is fantastic I have noticed they dont always have what I need. I feel as though the quality has slipped a little bit. I guess thats why online shopping is killing retail
A lovely store with a knowledgeable and friendly team to assist with all of your creative needs. They offer a wonderful variety of products for afforable prices as well as in-store technique classes for adults and young people.
Absolutely amazing. Great prices and the most wonderful staff. Love it!
I dont typically write reviews, but Im very impressed by Artist & Craftsman in Chestnut Hill. They have a huge selection of different craft materials, and often have lower prices than Blick or AC Moore on popular products. Very convenient location, and you will never want to leave once you go in as there are so many interesting things to look at. The staff is wonderful and helpful, but do not hover over you as with many other stores.
I discovered this shop after the QUARANTINE and I could no longer get to a Micheals or any other large store. I also DIDNT want to order online. Just put in your handmade decorated mask and get to the Hill, 😋. You can walk around and really SEE products for yourself to get EXACTLY what you want. ITS WONDERFUL! Lots of material variety, kits, supplies for sculpture/drawing/ painting/framing/stickers/beads/glitter/ posterboard/fabric dye/journaling/ jewelry/scrapbooking/glitter....and reasonable prices. Its local and good for the community. The employees are helpful and friendly. Teacher Discounts! 😎😍😁
Excellent service, products and wonderful employees!
The Nicest people work there. This is my second painting class this year; when you are a pre-beginning painter and have to purchase supplies, you think it will be so easy! Um, I didnt know there were different grades of paints and billions of brushes to select from. I was overwhelmed and if it wasnt for the bst staff ever, I would have ready bought a crayola watercolor paint box.Not only did the staff help me get all of supplies, they were very cost conscious. This was much appreciated as a pre-beginner!. I believe that all of the staff are artists; regardless, they are extremely knowledgeable . They are just the nicest people! Plus students get 10% off!
Friendly, helpful service, vast inventory and very reasonable prices. I hope this store never goes away. Id go here before looking on Amazon any day. Just being in this store makes me happy.
Mask nazis. The store must be doing well, despite the lockdown, if its employees can turn away customers who cant wear masks. Its a shame, because I was prepared to spend some good money there.
SERVICE ABOVE and BEYOND!! I needed some art supplies for my sanity and I could have just purchased online but Artist & Craftsman Supply is one store I really need in my neighborhood. I tracked down an email and reached out to the store. To my surprise and delight, Rob was able to track down everything I wanted and he delivered it too!
Delightful experience! Pleasant, welcoming staff. So many arts & crafts. Im eager to return when Ive time to explore 🖌️
You can find anything you need at this store. Whenever my daughter has any projects to do I always go here and Im able to find everything that we need. Its a one stop shop and the staff is super friendly.
My daughter loves this store. Lots of great art supplies and friendly help
Great service. Knowledgable, friendly staff. Good inventory.I live in Montco and look forward to the occasional trip to Blicks in Philly - great store and it gets me into the city. Now, with Artist & Craftsman Supply in Chestnut Hill, I dont have to wait for a trip into the city in order to take advantage of a great resource for artists. Thanks to A&CS.
A grade art store with lots of supplies. Very helpful staff. Also this is an employee owned store, shopping here supports the community in many many ways that shopping at other stores never will. Co-ops are democratic and good for what ails the country.
Good art supplies, nice staff. Tricky to find first time around.
Nice place to shop, friendly staff and a good location. They have a lot of your craft needs except for candle making products were limited. Overall I like the shop. I would definitely recommend it to my friends.
If Im getting art supplies, Artist & Craftsman is my number one destination. Knowledgeable and friendly staff with a wonderful assortment of supplies and gifts for every occasion.
It was a small place, packed with art supplies and other craft materials. The customer service was also great. Id recommend it to anyone in the area.
What a nice community store with the friendliest most helpful staff around.
Your go to for art supplies, for me great place for paint supplies and a great variety of canvasses from small non standard shapes to very large.
Came here looking for a new planner. While they didnt have the exact thing I was looking for, they are a very well stocked crafts store with most everything you could need ranging from Clay modelling to huge wall sized canvases.
Love this store, they have all varieties of art supplies at really good prices. They also have a really nice selection of toys and gifts for kids.
Friendly and helpful staff. They have so much for artists. Wide variety of paper and canvases. The place is hard to find, its set back off of Germantown Ave in a brick warehouse.
They have wonderful supplies and I was able to purchase the gold canvases on sale within the store! Yeah!
Such a gem! I love the old school art supplies store vibe. Also a great place to find eclectic small gifts!
Great art store with plenty of options, helpful staff and a 10% off student discount! I go here all the time with my girlfriend and get all sorts of pens and sketch supplies.
Came in here to pick up supplies for my wifes fashion classes and loved every minute of it. Great store. Tremendously helpful.
Its a wonderful store! They had loads of supplies and the staff were all incredibly nice. Its a dog friendly establishment as well, which I appreciate.
Staff are friendly and knowledgeable, very willing to help with any project. This store carries both high quality art supplies and inspiration/materials for crafts.
Great place, seems like they always have what I need for art class
Feels like a mom and pop store (in a good way)! The staff is courteous and helpful and I never feel like I am being stalked in the store.
A unique art supply in a hideaway driveway at the bottom of Chestnut Hill. Interesting craft items and plenty if projects ready to take on with a kid, which is nice. Staff pretty knowledgeable and friendly.
Good supply of arts and crafts items. Knowledgeable staff.
Great service a good prices. Even supplies I wouldnt find at Brand stores like Blicks. And despite not having parking specifically for the store, I always find somewhere close.
Best customer service ever!!! Thank you for taking the time to help me with the art supplies!! My new favorite art store
This place is amazing. Great staff and tons of art supplies. Will be my go to place from now on.
I love this store! They have everything you need and the friendliest, most helpful staff 😀
Huge variety. You can find everything there. Prices are lower than in the city and quality, at least of the products we bought which were for my kids so inexpensive, is excellent.
Any crafty thing you could want, they have. From paint to puppets, you better believe its in here. The only reason I couldnt give it five stars is that the prices for certain things were very difficult to find.
I always enjoy popping in here. Great selection of art supplies, especially printmaking. Friendly staff, clean store.
I love to shop at the at the Chestnut Hill location. The staff are so nice and helpful. My son loves the toy section.
They were very helpful and they had everything you need when it comes to art supplies I think that if you go there you will not have a problem with getting what you need and what you want
Quaint little shop stuffed with everything you need for crafts, plus quirky toys and activities. Friendly staff will help yoy find what youre looking for.
Really nice and helpful staff. Great selection of art supplies. Will definitely be back!!!

This a great store, packed with excellent art and craft supplies!
Its not too big so getting lost isnt an option, finding the things you need are relatively easy, and there was something there for everyone. You dont have to be a hard core professional to know what to buy and the people there are friendly.

2022-03-01LOVE this shop! Wish I had realized it was here sooner. Staff is very friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful; the selection of supplies is WAY more broad than I expected from a little local shop. There is inspiration around every corner! I honestly cant wait till I run out of art supplies so I can go back here and stock up!

Review №7
2022-05-17This particular art supply store has just about everything and anything you need, it can be expensive but they offer student and teacher discounts. When you cant get down town this place can be a lifesaver.
Review №8
2021-12-25This store is by artist 🎨 for artist 🎨True crafts people work here. So if you come in with questions they have answers.....well detailed answers.....but most importantly suggestions which is fabulous. They will tell you what materials really work and what doesnt, what brand is best, and even if something is a waste of money and not worth the purchase. They truly care about their customers and wont lie just to make a sale.

2022-01-22Friendly, helpful staff. Theyve had what I needed every time. Its a pleasure to go to a real art supply store rather than a hobby shop.
