We are an independent art materials store located in the heart of downtown.  We are happy to be entering our thirteenth-year of business.  It’s been an honor to share the enthusiasm and creative process with our patrons – many of whom have now become close friends and allies of expression.

Our operation is a darling 1000 sq. ft. space, but with an extensive catalog of materials to choose from. We serve anyone curious to create.  You might be a beginner looking to dabble with a new medium.  You might be a full-time working artist.  We respect all paths and equally encourage all levels.

We carry both student and artist grade mediums: acrylics, watercolors and oils.  We carry a variety of paper, inks, and brushes.   Come see what different portfolios, pens and markers we can order you as well.  Whether you are a printmaker, painter, or muralist we can assist you with your projects.

Check out our new gallery space.  Since 2017 Pain Sugar Gallery has held monthly art exhibits showcasing local and international mediums of expression and communication.  Drop by and view the latest installments from the many talented individuals we are proud to represent.
