What a great experience. Kristen was great to work with, I appreciate her expertise.
Village Art is a magically fun place. As the photos show artistic personality runs through the store floor to ceiling.The staff is friendly and smiling. Very proactive and happy to assist.I love their craft section, its small but mighty, and the amazing handmade papers in the back.The photos I placed show the crazy beautiful floor in the back that leads to a water sound feature. Really neat.My favorite spot is the Printers Proofs which are a fantastic way to grab bits of small local art.#shelleraecreative #shellerae #VillageArt
An artists paradise! We came looking for water color supplies and found much, much more. Something for all levels of interest and talent. The staff was very helpful. Great experience. Well be back.
Village Art is recklessly creative, inspiring its wanderers to amazing feats and taking even the most un-creative of us to wonderful places. The staff are friendly and helpful, and Kristen the owner knows more about all kinds of art than anyone Ive met. Most certainly returning here!
I absolutely love this art supply store everyone is so helpful and they always have the greatest quality of art supplys and the prices are really great
A great art store with something for every type of artist. Quit buying art supplies on line and support a great local business like this one. The staff here is extremely knowledgeable and their art supplies are great quality. Every time I go for supplies my son just has to go with me. Kids love it. Adults love it. Locals love it!
They were very friendly and service was excellent. Keep up the great work.
Fantastic art supply store. Pens, pencils, markers, paints, and so much more. Cute little novelty items. Everything you could want for any of your art supply needs. Friendly and knowledgeable staff.
1st rate service.
One of the best art stores! The owners are amazing and friendly. Highly recommend!
Friendly and helpful staff, carries a good selection.
Amazing variety of everything-art!! 11/10
We were looking for Christmas present for my grandsons. They helped us put two awsome drawing packets together for them. Great service and very knowledgeable.
You know it was good, they have a lot of stuff stuffed in to a little space. With a good selection of it all. Anything you need for your art and craft project. The ladys there were super eager to help. I got what I needed. And was satisfied when I left.
Has a lot of Art supplies. Good staff!
They have a ton of stuff and solid prices
Knowledgeable staff, and a cozy store that I love to get lost in.
Friendly, knowledgable staff. One visit and you feel confident if you are an accomplished artist or an amateur they carry and can provide for ALL your needs; and wishes.
I went to find paper that I could iron on to make my own graphic tees. I spoke to people over the phone and they said that they have it. I went there got what they said it was what I wanted. I asked them repeatedly if it was right and they kept reassuring me it was what I wanted. I then buy, keep in mind I can’t have a job because I’m underage so it’s a lot off money. I come home very excited to use it, and guess what! It’s not what I wanted. I go back and then they tell me that they don’t have it, because they sold the only three they bought. I was extremely upset. They gave me a refund, but I am very frustrated and upset. So it you buy from this place make sure to check it till you know it is correct.
Very informed and knowledgable staff helped me buy supplies for my JC class.
Fabulous service! We went in to have a very big frame custom made for a large print. When the price was more than we wanted to pay, the owner (Kristen) helped us figure out a solution that was more affordable for us!
This is a great art supplies store. Ive been shopping here for just over 20 years. They have a fantastic assortment of pens, pencils, paint and paper as well as many other items.
Quaint and quiet, this shop is very comfortable to shop in. Delightful employees and nice music.
The is the best place for art supplies in Santa Rosa. The staff is extremely helpful, and they have a wonderful selection.
A great place to find your art supplies! Staff is very helpful and they actually know what theyre selling. Beside the more expensive art supplies they also offer less expensive brands which is a great choice if youre just starting out in the art world. Great section for kids. I love that they carry a good selection of the Leuchtturm journals.
They have a very nice and helpful team and the art supplies are at a good price and good quality
I guess the workers were trying to be nice and informative but we couldnt look at anything for long without someone coming up to us. When they talked to us it felt condescending since they kept asking us if weve ever used any of the items and if we knew what they were. Also felt like they thought we were going to steal, as they followed us a bit.
The people who work here are very knowledgeable and approachable. The store is well-stocked and has supplies for a wide range of budgets and interests as well as skill level.Highlight: this was the only place that I was able to find a simple 12 clear plastic T-square in the Lake-Napa-Sonoma tri-county area ($5>)
I LIKE THIS PLACE VERY MUCH EVERYONEIS SO FRIENDLY.SINCERELY, CAROLE DIANE YATES
Amazing supplies and helpful staff
I loved how they had a large variety of different types of art supplies from brushes to paints to even sculpting supplies. Very great quality too!
Amazing staff. Very knowledgeable and helpful. Beautiful store
Nice local art store. Great quality of product and lovely service. Prices wont be as cheap as a more generic huge store.
If I were to be needing anything art related, to sketch, paint, fold, frame, sculpt, color, write or glue, I would go to Village Art Supply!Friendly, knowledgeable and helpful staff are there to give their educated advice. I can’t think of anything that they don’t have, no project or product to big or too small.Lots of selection, thoughtful items, no junk, all quality.
Worst customer service ever! Take your business to Maxwell Street Art Supply where they will treat you well and they really know their products. Much better $ prices also!
When I was here yesterday, I knew what I wanted and the sales person was excellent at helping me find just the right items. I love this store! So many creative ideas come up when shopping here, I always leave wishing I had more time to entertain them all. As a result, I keep coming back -- whenever I can find a halfway-reasonable excuse to look for something they might have. Its one of the few places I can shop where, after I leave, I never feel like my time has been wasted.
Very helpful staff.
The staff are friendly and have excellent knowledge. The prices are fair. The inventory is amazing. Whats not to love?
Friendly staff and tons to look at! I love this store
Excellent service. Friendly attitude. Air Conditioned!??)Makes it pleasant to shop
Great East SR art supplys. Tightly packed with all types of tools and stuff for your art needs. I think they even frame your work there. Good selection of supplies for the very young artist.
Everyone here was super nice and had great suggestions for new supplies to try after taking the time to talk with me about the artistic effects I was trying to achieve!
Ive done business with Village Art for years. I buy supplies and have had many pictures custom matted and framed. Im always satisfied and enjoy the results.Currently, Im having a new type of product made that requires sizing, scanning, printing and cutting. I know what I want the finished product to look like, but have no idea how to get there. I turned over the project to Village Art and totally trust that Ill be satisfied.I love supporting small family owned and operated businesses.
Very knowledgeable staff to answer questions and provide options. Great selection of media and tools for all kinds of projects.
Its an ok bookstore
Great staff, great selection of supplies.
Great little neighborhood art store! My kids love this place, and they always have whatever we need. Plus the whole floor is elaborately decorated now which makes shopping quite an exciting adventure. :-)
Wonderful place amazing stuffAnd special thanks for Lady Alina
Great place. Friendly staff and a great selection of art supplies
Could not be more pleased. Absolute high-quality selection and 5 star treatment by the staff. I was treated with excellent customer service, and will be returning for all of my art-related purchases. Look at my reviews; I only do 5 star and I rarely do them. I use yelp, and I know it can be tricky knowing who to trust. I will stake my public reputation recommending this store. I am really grateful for the time and help in selecting x-mas presents for a young girl that I deeply care for. I am going to show up like a champ with my purchases- which they wrapped for me too. Go spend, and enjoy. Oh and my exs daughter whom I love dearly, loved her gifts, a year later, and asked for more this year. Super-star store and service.
Great art store! Something for every artist in all mediums. Copic markers, Pentel, pastels, pens, pencils, watercolor, acrylic, brushes, books, cards, papers, frames, lots of gift items and the list goes on and on!Large parking lot, free parking.Attentive knowledgeable staff and fair prices.Could have a bit more space and a little longer business hours, but overall an excellent art store.
I have a very talented girl always spend more than 300 dollars every time in this store that is in my neighborhood..the workers at village art supply .. supply you with strange look before they help you ..Maybe bias ? Or maybe in order to be able to shop there you need to dressed up, wear fancy dress, high heels, or tie, or maybe you just need to be blonde lol so you can buy some simple specific regular, acrylics, brushes, pens, markers, paper for your art project .... or Maybe this is too fancy place for Spanish or brown people ... anyway I’m glad we have Rileystreet art store more selection and employees that are down to earth..
Perfect little professional artist supplies. Very knowledgeable staff.
What a great and FUN little store! They had lots of options for art from cheap things to get you started all the way to really high end brushes and pens (Mont Blanc). The decor is whimsical as well.
Do not come here - unless you are prepared to spend money.... I can only limit myself here once a month... Ive found places online that are cheaper - but theres something about going into a store and talking to friendly, knowledgeable staff about products. Especially if youre thinking if branching into a different medium.Just like all small mom and pop / boutique art stores - people go for the environment and the interactions with others that are also artists. Do yourself a favor, go in with a limited amount of money... and dont worry about not getting everything all at once - theres always the next trip....
Amazing collection of everything art. A magical store indeed.
Has everything you need and more, clean store well stocked. A few employees are quite annoying, following, at every corner you turn... hmmm... hawking... but there is one lady with short hair really chatty and amusing, helpful, funny, entertaining.
This location has some of the most helpful staff. I was able to find a great notebook and pen for myself with the help of their staff. Parking in the area is easy and there is plenty of it. They have such a wonderful selection of items. Anything you cant find they would be happy to order.
Pretty big art store nice selection. Prices are pretty fair, my brother is an artist and this is his favorite store. The staff in here are always really friendly and talkative.
Staff very helpful with ideas and use their expertise to enhance customers projects
Lots of inventory, but Expensive! Back to Rileystreet tomorrow. They were closed today. Thought Id look around at Village Art Supply, but their prices are extremely high compared to Rileystreet and even Dick Blick. Left with nothing. Ill be at Rileystreet tomorrow.
Friendly staff, get selection, all around wonderful experience.
The staff are very helpful to guide you through the store and if they dont have it will order it in for ya.
A remarkable amount of arts and crafts supplies and the location is perfect. The staff are always helpful and polite as well. I shop here all the time with a great experience every time.
The staff is always friendly and helpful. Even if Im not sure how to describe what Im looking for. There is an amazing selection of paper, paints, pens, brushes, etc. Its fun just browsing.
Dedicated assistance provides great direction and suggestions.
Wonderful, friendly and knowledgeable help. Highly recommend.
Always helpful. Great customer service. Excellent selection of art supplies.
I love supporting local businesses, but whats great about this local art supply store is that I can find custom made items for my clients, and my 3 daughters can find canvases, unique markers, custom framing and get organizing ideas for their rooms. Its also fun seeing how much more fun stuff the owners, Kristen & Zak, can compact into their little store too! Its refreshing knowing I can ask them anything since their both there every single day.
Incredible selection. Caters to all levels artistry. Definitely support this local store if it is within your means
Super friendly helpful staff. Very nice selection. Very pretty decor.
Well stocked. Helpful, courteous service.
They have a little of everything and super friendly and helpful
Possibly the best shop in Santa Rosa for art supplies. Friendly and helpful staff.
Rude and condescending staff. There are better options for art suppliers, locally.
Great selection, a ton of products and friendly staff.
They almost always have what I need as a college student and artist. Their staff is always helpful in answering my questions.
Nice place. Prices keep hobos out.
Whats really nice about this shop is that they employ artists and not just clerks. Every time Ive gone in with a problem or question, they have a variety of solutions to propose. Ive asked about adhesives, collage, mediums, and framing, and theyre creative and helpful. Occasionally Ive gone to workshops and demos here too, which is a nice community offering.The prices are good, and parking is convenient. Its a great store for gifts and browsing -- actually, Ive spent too much time wandering around this store looking at all the supplies! One of the best presents Ive given my sister was a gift card to Village Art Supply. They also have rather a delicious selection of paper in their back room area.
Fun art store with really helpful staff.
They always seem to have everything I need no matter what it is. Staff is also knowledgeable abd friendly. This is where I go to get all of my art supplies now.
Extremely knowledgeable, welcoming staff and a massive selection, complete with open testing stations to boot. I plan on making very regular visits here
Nice selection of sketchbooks and other art supplies.
Great selection and staff.
The best selections!
Knowledgeable staff, and great selection of colored pens, and paints. Watch for their sales!

A real art store for people who love art. And real artists to answer your questions. Very helpful and welcoming. Prices are good too.
