About

Huntsville Art Supplies on Seminole Drive is a specialty art supply store serving Huntsville's artist community. While it's not an activity destination in the traditional sense, for kids who are passionate about art, a trip to a real art supply store is a special experience.

The store stocks artist-quality materials across various mediums — paints, brushes, canvases, drawing supplies, pastels, specialty papers, and more. The selection goes well beyond what you'd find at a big-box craft store, and the quality of the materials makes a noticeable difference in the art kids produce.

Located in the Seminole Drive art studio cluster alongside the Huntsville Art League, Creative Arts by Melanie, and other studios, the store is perfectly positioned for families already in the area for art classes. A quick trip to pick up supplies before class — or a reward visit after — adds to the experience.

Staff at specialty art stores are typically knowledgeable and can recommend appropriate supplies for young artists at different skill levels. If your 10-year-old wants to try watercolors or your teen is getting into charcoal drawing, the staff can suggest a starter set that won't break the bank. Plan 15-30 minutes for browsing and buying.
