When I tell you that I LOVE this store, I really mean it! As an artist living in the small town of…read moreHamlet, I don't have access to true art supply stores nearby. After searching online, I found Jerry's Art Supply Wholesale Club in Greensboro--about an hour and 20 minutes away--and I couldn't be more grateful that I made the trip. From the moment I walked in, I was met with the most genuine and welcoming customer service from Erica and Patricia, who turned what could have been a routine shopping trip into an inspiring and unforgettable experience. Patricia was incredibly kind and attentive while helping me find supplies, and when I shared that I was building an art portfolio for my SCAD application, her encouragement was beyond anything I expected. Normally, I'm not comfortable showing my work to others, but there was something so warm and authentic about Patricia's spirit that I took a leap and shared a few of my completed pieces. Her reaction--her eyes lighting up as she pointed out specific details she loved--made me pause and truly see my own work in a new way. As my own worst critic, this was a moment I'll never forget. I may or may not have given her a surprise hug in my excitement, but she was just that awesome! Then there's Erica--an absolute gem! Her bright, sparkling eyes when talking about art techniques and supplies showed just how passionate she is, not just as an artist but as someone who truly loves her job. Even though she was busy helping other customers, she never made me feel like an inconvenience. She took her time, answered all my questions, and we even geeked out over the dream of owning a set of luxurious Caran D'Ache colored pencils one day! Her patience, knowledge, and enthusiasm made my shopping experience an absolute delight. Coming to Jerry's felt like fate--like the universe placed me there at just the right time to receive the encouragement I needed from Patricia and Erica. Whoever owns this incredible store, please know that you have two of the kindest, most passionate souls representing your business. They made my entire month, and I will absolutely be back! If you're an artist--whether a beginner or a pro--do yourself a favor and visit Jerry's Art Supply Wholesale Club. You won't regret it!

I gotta say, this is one of the best art supply shops I've ever been it. It caters well to artists…read moreof many mediums. High quality paints and markers, GREAT selection of paper. Nothing felt overwhelmingly overpriced, everything was fair ESPECIALLY if you get the $25 annual membership. My only gripe is that there could be a good selection of clay + sculpting materials, but this store focuses heavier on painting/2D traditional arts, which allows for a spectacular selection in those areas. Employees were kind, welcoming, and helpful. Can't recommend this place enough, I will be back!

And if Union was gonna live up to the vibe set in their frequent Videri pop-ups. So I'm keeping an eye on Craft Habit, hoping they thrive now there are more things to do as more shops of supreme interest open up. I used to love the maker space concept that Jerry's artarama used to sponsor, near the now defunct SRI. So I am really fiending for a art/craft maker hookup now and then to learn a new craft and make friends. I'm gonna keep them on my bookmark list so I don't forget.

So when I am in a new area of a town, I google "art supplies" and pray for some relief from the tyranny of plastic and cake decorating, scrapbook paper and seasonal driftwood. So I found ArtPost in an unexpected place. A small dwelling type storefront with funky painted blue building and two doors... take the left. Inside you will find traditional and some on trend art supplies packed inside the small space like a european counterpart. If you are an artist or craftsperson, I don't believe you will be able to leave without something. p.s. they have some of the coolest japanese brush tip pens.

I have used them twice now for private classes/team building projects and both time they were phenomenal. For far less money than what other chain art-creation-team-building-events asked, Art Post created a custom activity for our group and created a laid-back atmosphere that encouraged creativity but also socializing. I also observed a class with younger children and the teacher was patient and also encouraging of creativity with the kids. Overall, I was very impressed with their community outreach and artistic philosophy. They also host some really great outdoor markets on the weekend where you can find lots of great local art and music!

I live just outside Raleigh, NC and only discovered this place about a year ago when I got back…read moreinto making art. Almost immediately it became my go-to shop for art supplies - and framing supplies as well. I do a bit of framing on the side for myself, family, and friends, and they carry a great selection of mat boards and backer/mounting boards, including archival products. I can't really speak to their in-store frame selection since I've only needed mat board and mounting supplies since I started shopping here. Their art supply selection is huge, and they carry just about anything you could need. The customer service has always been excellent - everyone I've interacted with has been friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. And if someone wasn't personally familiar with what I needed help with, they were always quick to find another associate who was. Their prices are also very fair, especially considering the excellent selection and customer service you get in return. I would absolutely recommend this Jerry's to anyone. If you've never shopped there before, I think you'll be very happy once you do!
