For any serious Oklahoma city artist this is the ONLY place to get quality fine art supplies. Look at the results I get from using their paints, brushes, and surfaces.

Okay so I have lived in OKC for 30+ years and even though my daughter is an artist and has told me all kinds of good things about Porch I never needed to go there until yesterday. They are great! They have lots of materials and you are welcome to roam around and find what you are looking for or they will walk you to the location of what you need. Prices are better than the Big Box art and crafts stores plus the quality of what you are getting feels better. Give them a try and you will not be disappointed. Heck call them if you need something specific and they will go check for it if they dont know.

This is a wonderful store with fantastic customer service and a vast selection of high quality art supplies. The staffs knowledge about their products is excellent. Mrs. Porch was more than willing to replace a defective item for me, and I will gladly shop here rather than chain stores. They have a much bigger, better selection, and the prices are better too!

Ok, if youre into art, this is the place for you. While I personally am far from being any type of artist, my son was in heaven. The staff was super friendly and the prices were very reasonable. This is our goto place for art supplies. Since finding it, it has become our weekly stop for art supplies. One thing to note. Like most small business, supplies are slow in coming in due to the pandemic and world events, so dont give them to much grief if something is on back order. Theyll get it and it probably already on order.

They were truly awesome! So friendly and helpful too! I havent been to a bigger, more fully stocked art supply store in my life! I traveled all the way from Tulsa to shop here today for Montana spray paint. It was worth the trip- I will be coming back!

Great local business with everything you need in stock. Don’t waste your time searching large chain stores for what you need, like I did. It took 3 minutes to find the exact item I needed here and was assisted by incredibly helpful people.

As an art student this place has been my saving grace. I am able to buy all the materials required for my courses fairly cheap. They have a huge selection that seems overwhelming but is organized well. Employees are helpful and happy, you can tell they enjoy being there. Students and teachers make the journey in groups to be able to purchase materials. The only issue I have is the checkout process, but all in all wonderful place.

The best place in Oklahoma and Oklahoma City to buy your art supplies. I love supporting local businesses because I myself am self employed. The owners are always so nice and willing to take time out of their day to stop and chat. Love this place and the owners.

Ive been shopping at Porch since fall 2013. They have amazing products at extremely amazing affordable prices! Which as an artist helps immensely! Everyone who works there is so nice and if you have any questions about supplies or projects they are always enthusiastically helpful. Once you shop here, youll never wanna go to Michaels or Hobby Lobby again. I promise.

This is THE place to get art supplies of you really want something special and you care about spending your money locally. They have this giant warehouse with every kind of unique art product you could think of. The staff is super friendly and very helpful. The prices are very reasonable. I love this place so much. I would go there every day and just play with different stuff if I didnt think that would get old for them. Love love love this place. Only wish I had known about it sooner!

Hands down the best art supply store in the city. Need a recommendation? Real working artists are there to help. Skip the retail craft mart in the strip mall and buy the good stuff at Porch. Also, theres a shop dog. I mean, what else could you ask for?

Review №19

As an artist having the right supplies is important. Finding cost effective ones even more so. Mr. Porch, his family, and their team provide excellent quality products, help and customer service. They truly care about the people they supply and help. Make sure to say hello to Charlie when you visit as well.

The best art supply shop in the city. There is a wide variety of items in stock. The staff is super, above and beyond friendly and helpful. Last year they even gave us a bag of peanuts for Christmas. It was very sweet.Plus there is a big adorable dog that I will sit and pet while my wife shops.

Little known art supply store with huge selection. Much better than the big box arts and craft stores. Knowledgeable staff are available and they even have shop dog! Good selection of paint pens and every color of Sharpie you can imagine. Good people, good selection.

An amazing art supply warehouse. The staff is super helpful and they are even willing to order stuff special if they dont have what youre looking for. The price points are also really good.

Review №24

Great place to buy school or art supplies - its almost like art supply heaven. No, it is art supply heaven. You walk in and art supplies ran from the ceiling. You going in to pick out some paint brushes, two hours later you have markers, pencils, erasers (the good kind), nice art journals, canvas and maybe a paintbrush. Its hard to get just one thing here.

Review №25

This store is literally my happy place. The staff is always very friendly and helpful, and I can find a wide variety of high quality art supplies. There have been a few times the staff even took a few minutes to teach me how to use a new product like mineral paper, chameleon markers, or liquitex ink. I felt they went above and beyond what is expected. Its those little things that will keep me coming back for life!

Review №29

This art store has such great deals and everything you could possibly need. I was expecting it to be expensive because it caters to the art students and more professional artist types, but it is really well priced, friendly and fully stocked. My only complaint would be that check out can take a while with the small business system.

My favorite place to buy art supplies in Oklahoma City for years. They are easy on the wallet and have a nice laid back ma & pa feel. A much more comfortable place to shop than Triangle A&E. Sometimes you have to dig to find the right supplies, but they have a great selection once you figure out where everything is.

This place has pretty much all of the stuff you cant find everywhere else and it reasonably priced too. The staff all seem nice too like a family run store. The only thing I dont like is the location is kinda a weird place not near anything else I normally go. But hey if you need supplies go check it out.

They need to work on their customer service skills. I was sold the incorrect items and I was stuck with the black board which is irritating. The first visit here wasnt great due to the lady being beyond rude that was there to help customers. I didnt appreciate how she treated my husband. They may have great prices but I refuse to shop at a store where the employees lack customer service skills.

Review №41

The girl who didnt actually help us was condescending at best and pedantic the rest of the time. We came away without buying what I dont doubt they had, she just couldnt be bothered to show us as she had to make sure we knew how much smarter she is than all of the rest of us.

This place supplies items to schools (and the general public) such as a wide variety paint, drawing pencils, coloring pens, paint brushes, etc. This is a wonderous place for anyone artistically inclined!

Everyone was really nice at Porch Supply. I had to buy supplies for an art class. I didnt realize until several weeks later but the (expensive) Sobo glue that I purchased was totally tried out. It was the first time I tried to use it and it hadnt been opened previously (at least not by me). I had to run to a Walmart and buy some glue because my project was due the next day.

The coolest store on the planet if you live in Oklahoma and love to create!! WAY better than hobby lobby or wal mart breasts of the amazing staff and HUGE COLLECTION of grade A art supplies. You want some top of the line paint, any kind of paint? They have it. And it isnt stupid expensive. Im going back to buy some Speedball Fabric Ink and linocut blocks. Whatever you need, they have.

This is one of the coolest hidden gems in OKC! Its basically an art supply warehouse! They have amazing prices, and a fantastic assortment of paints, markers, pigment powder, encaustic paints, brushes, paper, school-supply type craft material, and a TON more. Their assortment of spray paints alone is insane! They have like every low pressure Montana color you can think of, including florescent colors, caps, and solvent to clean the caps. The staff is always super helpful and nice, and theres even a super sweet giant doggo thats there sometimes
