Door County Art Feature: The Art Supply Store as Meeting Place – Artists Guild LLC
When I first visited the Artists Guild in Sturgeon Bay, I instantly made two observations. The first was that it was hard not to want to be an artist of some sort after seeing the beautifully organized rows of paint tubes, drawing pencils, and paper varieties. The other was that for the first time, I was able to walk into an art supply store without feeling an overwhelming sense of being completely out of my element.
