Blick Art Materials 1330 Chestnut Street, Philadelphia, PA 19107

"Has the most variety of art and craft related things in the city as far as I have been to. Staff is usually very knowledgeable and fun to communicate with... There's always that 1 crabby employee that just turns you off from the place but it's been great mostly"

"I don’t go near a Blick store without going in. I’ve not been what I would classify as an artist for close to a decade, but the draw of such places is too strong. This is a very nice Blick and well stocked. If I still drew I probably could have spent some serious cash, but since I flew in to Philly my available space for stuff is limited, as is my purchasing options for larger items."

"From the moment I walked into your store I was truly impressed! I was blown away by the selection that you have. You have almost everything for any kind of artist. I was approached by several people in your store to check to see if they could help me. Thank you for that It was much appreciated. I met the lovely Ty on her first day at Blick Art materials. She was patient and kind with me. As a first time buyer and beginner watercolor artist, I had no idea when I truly needed. Ty spent time with me recommending materials that I could use to get started. I’m very excited to get started on my new journey Ty! I can’t wait to visit your store again the next time I am in Philly. Thank you for everything."

"They discontinued a lot of things, I spend there 30 minutes to get clay, and nobody is actually asked me what I am looking for, I don’t know I would come come back, price and options are better in Amazon than they have."

"All I have to say is that this place is amazing. As an artist, I really have to say that Blick is a remarkable store for any artist who is looking for sketchbooks, pencils, oil pastels, canvases, paint, and so much more great art materials. The building is huge, and filled with anything you can imagine. Any sized sketchbook and any color of pencil is always available on the shelves and if you cannot find it, don’t be afraid to ask an employee—they are beyond helpful and assisted me when I asked them for a certain sized sketchbook. The cashier was incredibly kind and even noticed me about a reward I had; which I gladly used to unlock a discount on my purchase. Overall, Blick is an amazing store that I really do recommend to anyone who seeks for everything an artist can imagine."
