    Entrance - The photo depicts the exterior of Blick Art Materials in Berkeley, CA, featuring a brick building facade, large glass doors, and windows. The store's signage includes a prominent red sign with the name 'BLICK' and additional signs indicating curbside pickup options. Inside, art supplies and materials are visible through the glass. A parking meter is positioned outside near the entrance.

    Great place to get your art supplies quick. The workers offer help but also give you space to think, shop and be inspired. Whenever I'm in line and there's a few customers starting to queue, they call for more cashiers which is always helpful! The workers went out of their way to help me find what I was looking for. In store they did not sell the canvas size I needed, and I told them I can't order online because deliveries for large items are hard for me to receive where I live (due to porch thieves), but they told me they can order it to their store for me and when it arrives they'll let me know so I can pick up the canvas.

    Solid haul from Blick today!

    Their prices are way higher than on blick online. They lied to me when I asked if their prices would be the same as the ones online.

    Do you sell soft pastels in this store?

    Hello, We have Sennelier and Rembrandt soft pastels. Thanks!

    Do you take walk-ins to get prints? It's hard for me to keep appointments with unpredictable schedules.

    Do they sell acrylic yarn?

    They have a few large rolls

    I want to find paint that I can use to paint logo picture on glass ware? I'm pretty clear and a glass wine glass or a shot glass

    Peebeo paint. You can paint drinking glasses and bake in the oven to dry. After that, it's dishwasher safe. They also sell an opaque one for plates and mugs. Available in market form also.

    Do they sell angelus paint in this store?

    Not sure.

    I have been buying art supplies from Berkeley Blick for 3 years and the folks there are unfailingly kind and helpful.

    They have a great selection of materials, from fabric (what I'm usually looking for) to notions to…read morechildren's play materials to funky collectibles to actual sewing machines and earrings made from their supplies (presumably). I attended a craft night there and hope I get to again soon!

    I once bought a box of popsicle sticks. The box was moldy, some of the sticks were moldy, but I was…read moreusing them for a project. Yes, I paid 97 cents, but that box was ratchet. And I have to say that is true with much of the stuff in there. The person who donated them must have been non-melinated, because I have had the hardest time with my donations. So, they need donations to keep afloat and want to give you the third degree and reject your stuff. I went to give them lights, no xmas lights, but just regulary white lights, the type the a teacher will put around a board to highlight it or something. I was told coursely that they don't take xmas lights or nonworking lights. I explained their usage in my room and the guy plugged them in and reluctantly took them. Another time I came with binders, I'm a teacher, graduating from school and have more binders than I know what to do with. And they are good binders. Also, he said that they had too many of them. Where??? I didn't see them in the little donation space and I didn't see them in the store, so...The guy was so dismissive. The attitude is like they're doing me a favor looking at my stuff before rejecting it. Is this the nonprofit donation version of the black tax, where if a black hand is touching it, you reject it? Or you choose to pay less? While there, a black male dropped something off and got in his car. This guy (big and blond) chased the SUV yelling after him and said he couldn't do that. The guy parked and got out of the car and they accepted the donation. I find it amazing that they will accept junk from some people and reject reusable things from others (melinated?) That may be the pattern. They are a joke!
