When I first started as an art student I was told I had to go to Grand Art Supply. They give student discount for LCC students and they know a lot about art. For my first classes I had no clue what some of the items on my list were. I just took it to them and they filled it for me. The prices are very good and highly competitive. The only other place to get supplies is basically at Michaels and the staff knows very little about the supplies or even what you are talking about. I had to get a mat cut once for a class later that day and they had it done. The only place to get art supplies in my book!
