She previously attended the online classes but there is nothing like in person instruction. They offer classes several days a week and on Saturdays for various age ranges, even for adults. Parents must be present at the door at pick up and drop off so I don't have to worry about my daughter's safety. Supplies are included in the price for newly registered students. That fee is waived for returning students. It's located right on Reisterstown Rd. There is not much street parking but there is a small lot located behind the building. From the front it looks like a house. I am not sure how it looks inside, as I have only been at the front door for check in and pickup.

I enjoyed my first shopping experience here. I had to take a drive to get here but it was worth the…read moretrip to see all the amazing supplies they carry. I'll definitely return again simply because of the assortment of options for every medium you can think. Be advised you'll need to find street parking (I easily found something nearby). So since i paid for the hour I took the time to do a lap of the store. I was greeted quickly by the staff (assisted with directions for the supplies I came for). They were sure to check on me and my progress and helped me sign up for future discounts. I think it's definitely worth the drive to come if you're having a hard time finding a specialty brand or niche supply. They carry everything you can think of. Some more reasonably priced (as well as more premium products for those who want to splurge).

I wanted to give this store a fair chance- I've been twice now, so my review is a combination of…read moreboth experiences. The first thing you notice when you enter the store is that everything is hodge-podged together- the "shelves" are the type of shelves you put in your basement or shed to store boxes- definitely not what you'd use for a store display. That being said, it's new and I'm sure it's expensive to open a new store, so whatever- looks aren't everything. They have a decent amount of items in the store for the size. Good quality sketch pads and pens. My major issue is the attitude of the owner. The owner of the store took every opportunity to speak poorly of the newly closed art supply store that was next door. The owner worked there for many years and opened this current store after the other store closed. When I walked in the first time, the owner was in the midst of a conversation with a customer about how "crazy" the former store owner was, etc etc. That customer left and I was the only one in the store. Since I live in the neighborhood I asked her questions about her new store- I didn't know she had any ties to the former art store in the same shopping complex, so I got to hear how awful this other owner was, how she wanted to overcharge her for everything, etc. I came in again last week to grab a sketch pad and it was the same story- I could hardly believe it. All this effort and breath wasted to put down a business that doesn't even exist anymore. I was so off-put by it, that I didn't even buy the sketchpad. As a business owner in Frederick myself, I think it's pretty easy to assume that we should all play by rule #1: do not speak ill of others when representing your business. Period. I don't know the history between the two women, but that doesn't matter to me- it's just bad business to speak poorly of others. She could have taken the opportunity to explain how she was going to do things differently, what she will carry and her hopes for the store, etc etc- instead she decided to take the low road and insult a company that is out of business and of no threat to her store. While there aren't too many places in town to purchase artist supplies from an independent dealer, I won't be shopping here again.
