Serving Artists, Students and Teachers Since 1983. We offer incredible prices, exceptional customer service and a huge selection of art materials and supplies.
Great product selection, excellent pricing, their sales are worth taking advantage of, and they have friendly staff. My choice for art supplies for over 30 yrs. I appreciate the Queen St. Beaches store addition. Gwartzman's, Wolfitt's and Aboveground are the reason Toronto has such competitively priced art supplies.They keep the big art supply chains honest and competitive. I like to support the smaller guy who works harder to get me what I need at a good price.
Above Ground Art Supplies on McCaul Street is just steps away from OCAD and stocks a huge assortment of art supplies, paper, notebooks and pens. With a lot of options, knowledgeable staff and affordable prices, Above Ground is a great one-stop shop for artists and doodlers alike.
This is a great place to go if you are new to fountain pens, and perhaps don’t want to get talked into spending too much. Great entry-level Faber Castell and Lamy designs, and if you want to go really old school, they even have a reed pen. There are several locations throughout Toronto.
This art shop has been supplying artists and art students in Toronto since 1983. As its popularity grew, so did the size of the shop, expanding until it maxed out at 3,000 square feet and three floors. Since the day it opened, it has prided itself on sourcing hard-to-find art products so artists never have to go without (in that sense, at least). Now, there are three locations around the city, giving Toronto ready access to art supplies.
