Super helpful staff for any questions you could have. The inventory is also really impressive too! Word to the wise: only public parking nearby is parallel on the street or in a garage so maybe avoid during the busier afternoon hours. I was there before noon and it was pretty easy.

Jonah was super helpful yesterday with getting me the items I needed. He taught me about textures and best practices. I even got a complete kit with all the items I need to be successful with my work. AND I saved $88 due to their price matching software they use to ensure we aren’t over charged in the store.

So excited to be able to visit Blick Art in person. I live 30 min away, but the drive is worth it. Great sale stuff. Helpful employees.

Blick Art Materials is the only art supply store in Midtown Atlanta.. they carry a healthy selection of all major art pursuits and art supplies, both beginner and professional... Art students get special discounts plus members get price matching with online store prices.. the website also holds live inventory so you can check something before going to the store.. the staff are friendly and always happy to help.. Blick is a great place to pick up a new hobby and even displays art from local artists

I’ve been shopping here since I was in college, when it was called Utrecht. Now that I’m a working professional I still go here. This is the best place for painters and illustrators to find a variety of materials at great values without shopping online. They get a lot of high demand products that are hard to find. They let you test a lot of the pens and the staff is superb!!!

The staff was super friendly and if you have questions about materials or need it ASAP, it may be worth shopping in store. HOWEVER, if you know what you want and are not in a rush, shopping online (same store) is considerably cheaper. I was under the impression (after asking staff) that once I meet the online store’s shipping minimum ($45) I would receive prices equivalent to the online store. I found an extra item to put me over the top and at the register it rung up as $70. After they applied the ‘discount’ it went down to $65. I had already added up the online prices before getting to the register so I wasn’t fooled. After leaving the store I sat in my car and added all of the exact same items to my cart and checked out with free shipping and it came to $52 with tax.I thought the ‘shipping minimum’ in store was awkward but figured whatever, I’m already here, at least I get the items immediately. But ultimately I’m sure other shoppers don’t even realize how much more they are paying to shop in store. I definitely won’t be visiting a store again.

Every time I come here the workers are quite friendly and helpful! They have a great selection of decent art supplies to professional grade. Many art supplies I cant find in others stores such as specific sketchbooks, pens, and fine arts material I can find here. The only downside is that whenever I shop for my art classes there is often some things that I need that are out of stock. Great staff!

Review №17

Manager at the register (Declan?) was very helpful finding what I was looking for without being pushy, hovering, or condescending. Made me much more comfortable since Im not a professional artist! 100% mask compliance in the store. Only drawbacks for me: parking is challenging-- only paid street parking available, but I guess thats to be expected in Midtown. Also I found some of the price tags confusing. Might be because Im not used to it but like for brushes, theyre all printed on a sheet with like a chart in kinda small print instead of next to the brush itself. The price tags on the shelves are on white stickers so dont stand out. I figured it out eventually but I think it could be more user friendly.

I cant stress how much I love this store. They are smaller than a Micheals or Hobby Lobby, but still have an amazing variety of drawing and painting supplies. I was shocked at how cheap the prices were on my initial trip, where has this place been my whole life?! I was expecting higher prices with it being in the city and the area, much much much cheaper than any other art store I have ever been in. My new favorite.

The parking situation is terrible because there are literally no options that do not involve the risk of having your vehicle booted. The store however, is well stocked with a generous selection of quality artist products. With a specialty store like this, you cant always shop online.

Review №26

Fair amount of variety and a decent selection for your average art school student. Professional artists will notice a significant lack of products and services but from a business standpoint its reasonable as Atlantas not known as an artistic hotspot. Staff is very attentive, to a fault. For the casual artist and student it will be sufficient, however, as a well fed artist, Ill definitely need to order online out of state to get what I need for my current commissions.

Ive been a Blick customer for some years now, mainly in the New York area. The customer service and friendly helpfulness that I received at this location yesterday was beyond memorable and the best Blick shopping experience that I have ever had! It makes me want to return to this store. All of the sales associates were attentive and helpful. Thank you for a great shopping experience! I look forward to returning for my future art supply needs.

I wanted something to occupy my time during quarantine but didn’t know where to start! I went into Blick and was immediately greeted by Chloe, she was super easy to talk to and gave me some amazing options to choose from. I decided to give a paint by numbers a go at her suggestion and I love it!! I’ll definitely be back to see Chloe for my next artsy adventure!

Blick is my go to for art supplies in ATL. Called around to several shops looking for foam board and no one had it in the size I needed. Although Blick didnt have have the size I needed (out of stock) they helped me cut the larger size down to what I needed, in store. If you call them, make sure youre talking to the actual store, not the customer support line. I spent 5 min on the phone with someone only to be told she wasnt actually in that location and couldnt verify they had what I needed in stock. She gave me the number for the actual store and they verified they had it on hand in one minute. Great selection, knowledgeable staff, and easy to get to if you dont mind walking a few blocks to get to MARTA.

Excellent customer service!I went for the first time last night and I was warmly welcomed by the staff. It was a pleasant surprise that they were all so kind even though it was a little late in the evening. I was quickly guided to the specific item I was looking for and they had EXACTLY what I needed.The store was clean, organized, and fairly easy to navigate. From what I saw, they seem to be well stocked with a variety of supplies.With the help of staff, I was in and out in minutes. I highly recommend this place to students and teachers because the rewards card gives you discounts on items that arent on sale ;)

Okay prices, I guess. Just be careful with your mask because employees are not scared to be rude and invade your personal space to whine about irrelevant policies if you let your mask slip while isolated from others. So discomforting Ill just be buying off Amazon now.

This store is a quality art store! The location has a wide range of supplies, from cheaper mediums to higher priced, higher quality tools. There are good discounts when buying higher quantities of materials. The location is on the smaller side, however, and therefore is not able to boast an inventory as large as larger chains such as Michaels. The location also checks bags at the counter.

This was my first time at Blick. The service was great and I loved that the location has a Starbucks right across the street.

Great first time there! I needed charcoal pencils (separately instead of a set) which they had a good variety of. They even have a paper out so you can test them (and the colored and graphite pencils they have). The cashier was super nice and helpful in finding things right away.Blick also has a good membership which is free, and if youre a student, then its even better!Cant wait to come again to browse!

Good place to get some things especially if youre on their coupon list and can buy them on sale. I did like it better when it was Utrecht- had some more interesting choices.

Review №96

This store is within a reasonably quick bike trip from the Midtown MARTA station (a bike rack is conveniently right in front of the store), in a pretty lively part of town, even around closing time. This store seems to attract both SCAD and Tech students due to the proximity of both campuses.I was informed by another source that this store does carry Rhodia notebooks. They do carry a good selection of Rhodia products, and are competitively priced. They do have a price matching scheme for the few items that may be slightly overpriced, but I did not feel like going through the process.
