I adore this store, the staff was friendly and informative. I needed to purchase a pina portfolio as im graduating in 4 months and they made the process so much easier. Im grateful and they will absolutely have my patronage again!

I love this store! Both online and in real life the service is excellent. The employees are so wonderful in the store; so helpful and knowledgeable. AND when they shipped me the wrong size product they sent me the correct one FOR FREE. And they were super nice about it. Top notch service.

Recommend Blicks or Jerrys Artarama over Plaza Art Nashville store! After driving 45 minutes downtown and accumulating approximately $100 in Gamblin media I ask to use their restroom. After some resistance and having to insist - I finally got their approval. Walking to the back area in search of the restroom, I inquired again (different person) and was told their President issued a policy of restrooms closed to the public and got some resistance again. Really, adults asking to use the restroom and you get this? I walked out, leaving $100 product and not shopping any farther! I WILL NEVER VISIT OR PURCHASE ANYTHING FROM PLAZA ART. And brick and mortar retail stores wonder why people shop on line or stop purchasing from them.Pretty pathetic!Unfortinately Jerrys Artarama got hit by Tornadoes last year and hasnt reopened. It been better in Plaza Art took the hit - theyre more desiring.

Just stopped in to buy acrylic paint and wasn’t going to ask for help but a nice older gentleman asked if I needed assistance, I said yes and he was so helpful in describing which paint to get for my art and I appreciated it! Thanks guy I didn’t get the name of!

Plaza is a cool in-person store. Lots of creative space, good supplies and prices... but their staff is really phoning it in.Ive read about this specific location promising to pay artists for teaching classes, then just forgetting about it and never paying them for their time.And now, my wife and others have ordered from them, only to have their orders forgotten for a week. And then they treat them like dirt when they reach out for a refund.I wouldnt go to a McDonalds that treats people like this, and I definitely expect way more from my local art store than I do a McDs.Go elsewhere or order from Amazon, cause sadly Plaza has decided they dont have to try anymore.

Staff were very friendly and selection was pretty good. Its a large store that covers many styles of art. Prices are fair and Id probably be a regular if I lived in the area.

As an artist and painting instructor, my need for supplies is seemingly never-ending! This establishment is my most trusted supplier, and I refuse to go anywhere else! Simply put, this is the best of the best!

Nice place, really nice people working there. Wide variety of art supplies for relatively cheap. Only spent about $13 on a new book and some pens.

Horrible service, rude management. They also sell resin without the catalyst . Their prices are high and unclearly marked.

Update:Recently Plaza Has updated their attention to artist support and their inventory has incrementally upgraded. Thank you for taking notes.05/01/17Rudimentary art supplies and over staffed with lack of primary customer support, acts like a corporate business with out the need to attend artist needs and is taking for granted their independence without competition of other art supply stores. They need to step out of Nashville to understand the new talent theyre missing to connect with.

Went in today looking for some pretty specific items. Patrick was a huge help! He went above and beyond to make sure I got exactly what I needed for my project, and for a fantastic price. I highly recommend this shop and have no doubt that you will find everything you need in this clean and friendly store. I will be returning!

Have a big selection, and people have always been nice to me! However this summer I had something matted (4 pieces almost 100$) for which I was just given four frames cut from the board (no backing?, art unattached) of which some cuts were crooked. Couldnt return because I was in a time crunch for a show but I was disappointed. Ive gotten them attached and with backing here before without requesting that specifically, so Im unsure which is standard? It seems whenever I go in the person doing the matting has been unsure how to do it. :(

Incredible place to go to restock on supplies. Large array of ideas in every aisle for the arts and crafts fellow. This is a go-to place and usually spend half and hour when I stop by. The kids love it here.

Painting is a passion for me. I depend on Plaza as a major part of my support system, buying my supplies there because their inventory is vast and they price match anybody. If they dont stock it, they can likely order it. The staff is so knowledgeable, I am always awed. The manager & office folks are friendly and helpful, as well. And the classes are taught by top-notch artists. Whats not to like?. Downtown traffic, maybe. Go drive through Atlanta and youll realize Nashville has no traffic.

Do they have everything you need? Yes. Will you pay x3 what it costs at Michaels for the same exact product? Yes. Can you return anything after realizing this highway robbery? No.
