Artist & Craftsman Supply Seattle

Artist & Craftsman Supply was founded in 1985 as a small upstart art supply in the Portland, Maine area. At the time, the retail landscape of art materials was dominated by independent “Mom & Pop” storefronts that were often a mix of stationery, hardware, and office supplies. Catalog companies were also a major player as the internet was in its infancy as a commercial platform. A&C carved out its little corner in northern New England.
