Blick Art Materials 201 South Clinton Street, Iowa City, IA 52240

"We've shopped at Blick for years. They have a wide selection of products. Friendly knowledgeable staff. Convenient downtown location for anyone working or living downtown."

"Everyone was super helpful and knowledgeable.... didn't hesitate to ask if we needed help or had questions. There is so much stuff. Not only arts and crafts supplies but artsy items that help feed your creative soul."

"I find Blink has the most complete and comprehensive art supplies plus the staff is extremely knowledgeable and helpful in helping me find the most creative ways to stay "fresh" in my artistic expressions. The prices are fair for the total package they provide. As it seems you always can find a cheaper version of what your looking but you do get what you pay for. I'm very satisfied with what my money buys at Blink"

"I brought my sister and her bf all the time way out here from over an hour away to buy some stuff for their new airbrush shop in the Quad Cities and we were followed around by a older white gentlemen the whole time. We're black and It was obvious they though the we were going to steal stuff but little did they know we were looking to spend $300+ in their shop. We ended up leaving without buying anything because the harassment was so blatantly obvious. I highly recommend no shopping here... Whether your African American or not, discrimination shouldn't be tolerated, especially in Iowa city."

"Is it just me or are there online prices better? I try to find an excuse to visit this wonderful art supply store whenever I can. They have everything I need for art supplies from specialty paper, paint of almost every kind, markers, pencils, drafting tools, art books, custom framing. Their prices are competitive with other places I shop online but being able to see the products in person is worth the drive for me. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable and for people waiting to explore new things this is very important."
