The store has plenty for artists from every walk of life but there is one big issue. This review is…read morewritten from the perspective of an older disabled adult. Little thought was given to the consequences of crowding the aisles with product displays making the store difficult for someone with mobility challenges. I dropped a few brushes (which I did buy) and because it is difficult for me to bend that far I cried out for help several times using my announcer voice. Everyone in the store would have to hear this unless they were wearing headphones. No one responded. After waiting a bit I struggled to get the items off the ground. Finally someone came but it was too late. She stood directly in front of me preventing me from reaching the register. People in general have no awareness of disability. The employee who rang me up obviously didn't know how to have a short friendly chat. It made me feel unwelcome, as if I were disturbing her somehow. I have a long retail history and can't imagine why someone would treat a customer that way. It's unfriendly. She was capable of the simplest basics of operating a register. Unkind. Luckily I don't need to visit often.

Wowee zowee, I haven't been in a fine art store this extensive and specialized since I was…read moreliterally in college taking fine art courses and had to buy supplies from the campus store. I came here because I needed a replacement Micron 005 pen, which is a favorite among artists. I'd checked online and saw they carried them (as did Michael's, but I'm looking to vote with my dollars and spend more appropriately), but elsewise wasn't sure what to expect on my visit. I was pleasantly surprised and I am certain I will be back in the future for projects I have planned. There's stuff here that you just won't find at any big box craft store. That said, this store caters primarily to painters and drawers. This isn't a store to get kid's art supplies; it's a place for adult artists to shop. Canvases (reasonably priced) in a multitude of dimensions (some taller than I am), a staggering assortment of oil paints, paint pens, acrylic leather paint (designed to flex), a massive number of Copics, pastels/charcoal/conte crayon, Sculpey, watercolor supplies including Arches large format single sheets, huge selection of high quality spray paints, canvas sold by the yard on rollers, resin making supplies (including face masks/goggles), gloss glazes for your ceramic firing projects, mechanical pencil leads in every gauge and hardness you could desire, journals/sketchbooks, storage and easels, impulse items like stickers/greeting cards/candy towards the registers, a massive custom framing counter and a canvas stretching counter as well. The employees were all friendly and eager to help. I got asked while I was browsing if I needed any help finding anything. (I did actually need help finding the Microns but my goofy butt auto responded I was just having fun looking... which I was, but LOL I could've also used the help. I'm just so used to turning down assistance.) There's bathrooms in the back if you have need. They are gender neutral, hooray! Nothing fancy, but all functional and clean enough. The surface parking lot is a bit small (and many of the spaces are 30 minute maximum), but there's also plenty of garages nearby as well. It was pretty busy when I was there on a Friday afternoon!

I love crafts and wish they had better customer service because I would have been sold on more things but the overall vibe was off.

The app said they would be in the main aisle and this location feels a bit smaller and every aisle feels like the "main" aisle. We did find them way in the back of the store. They had a ton of clearance stuff all around the store. Not really sure why they got rid of the price scanners they had but they replaced them with almost what looks like the hand held devices the employees use to find items. Also not labeled where they are located and hard to find around the store. Prices seem pretty elevated and they don't do good coupons like they used to. They do still have some sales going on regularly though. They have a few self checkout options or an employee at a cashier stand.

Not to shocking but glad to see they've worked out their staffing issues. I'll say this store is pretty organized and decently stocked most times. It's always when I'm looking for a particular item they are out of it or I can't find it even though I check online first. I mostly only see staff working in the front end of the store near the registers the times I'm here. I don't really feel like the EP location is any bigger but they seem to carry a bit more than this location. Overall I like that they have a rewards now & self checkout!!

She gave me a date of which was also wrong because items do not go on sale until Sunday. She told me to buy them one line and I said i didn't want to buy them online. And then she looked up the beads for me and came up online. And then as I shopped she went up and down the isle on both sides several times i felt like she was watching me. And then I got up to the checkout to pay with another lady and she said something to me about not having my receipt and something I did not understand. I told the girl to please look it up unders my phone number. The older lady was very rude to me and I asked the newer employee if she was always a hard ass? Of which she didn't hear me. I left the store so upset after I spent $50 on beads. And I was so upset I almost Marched right back in to return the.. I might just do that tomorrow because the store closed.
