One of my friends and members of the Chicago Calligraphy Collective let me know about this spot and I’m SO glad that she did. Not sure I would have bumped into this location otherwise. Its in a part of the Loop that I am not usually in. The South Loop on 8th and Wabash, not far from my alma mater, Columbia College.
This brick and mortar has seriously eliminated the need for Amazon and JetPens online ordering! Seriously, if you are teaching a lettering or calligraphy course you can buy everything here. Nibs, nib holders, fine line brush pens, everything! Please give them a visit. Two floors of supplies and decidedly cheaper than Blick’s Art Supply on Kingsbury. There are also Artist & Craftsman chains in different cities, see if there is one near you!
