About us

Whether you’re popping into one of our stores to pick up some art supplies for the kids or treating yourself to some art materials from our online store, Artstore aims to provide you with the same level of great service we pride ourselves upon.

Since 1990, Artstore has lived and thrived in the heart of Glasgow’s busy city centre and is the city’s most popular art supplies retailer offering art supplies and support for the city’s exciting and ever changing art scene.

We pride ourselves on offering a diverse product range and aim to satisfy all of the creative community from fine artists to crafters.  Entering Artstore is like entering an arts and crafts Cave of Wonders.   Our Queen Street store is jam packed with our ever growing stock range boasting over 40 000 different product lines from tiny individual beads to huge pre-stretched canvases.

Our smaller but equally as charming second store is located within the Glasgow School of Art.  Open to both students and the general public, the Art school store provides a selection of our best and most reasonably priced Fine Art Materials, and the occasional surprise novelty.

With our online store, we hope to extend this knowledge and excellent service to anyone who can’t make it to one of our Glasgow-based shops but would still like quality art supplies straight to their front door.

Most of all, Artstore is about the customer: whether you think you're an artist or not.  We're always pleased to get feedback on how we're doing.
