Art Supply Store
Our non-profit, service-based supply store is one of the few physical shops in the Washington, DC area where you can walk in and buy artists’ materials. Our store is special because our store employees are knowledgeable, working artists who are ready and willing to guide you through your purchases.
As a service to our students, members, and supporters, supplies and materials requested by Art League instructors are sold here.

Class Supplies
Most teachers have copies of their supply lists on file in The Art League Store. We recommend that you shop early to avoid the rush. Most classes begin work the first day, so bring any supplies you have to your first class.
Due to limited staff and large enrollment, we are unable to mail, email, fax, or read supply lists over the phone.
As a non-profit organization, The Art League sells supplies at a discounted rate to League members and students. The Store makes every effort to stock items requested by Art League teachers, as well as other popular materials for the fine artist.
Please understand that the store operates primarily as a mission-based service to our teachers, students, and members, rather than simply a retail component of The Art League.
Stained Glass Store
Our glass store is open during Stained Glass classes.
Please contact our Supply Store if you wish to arrange a purchase/pickup of glass materials.
We offer a wide range of glass sheets in various sizes and colors, as well as foil, solder, bevels, bevel clusters, grinders, and a variety of tools — all at discounted prices.
