Artist and Craftsman LIC closing permanently
« on: July 23, 2020, 04:39:01 PM »
Sad news for artists in the area -- the only comprehensive large-sized art store in the area, Artist and Craftsman LIC, has permanently closed.


Artist & Craftsman Supply

"It is with heavy hearts that we announce the difficult decision to close A&C Long Island City permanently. Our staff and senior managers have put great effort into the store, but due to the conditions of the local market and the financial losses we have faced, we are unable to sustain our operations to make business viable. We are truly grateful for the loyalty, dedication, and outstanding level of professionalism displayed by our employees.

A huge thank you to our loyal customers who have supported us in Long Island City. You can still find Artist & Craftsman Supply throughout the country, including our three locations in Park Slope, Williamsburg, and Bushwick. Thank you for all of your support."

that is a bummer. i was a once or twice a year customer for random projects, but this was a must for so many of my artist friends.
