Congratulations to Jerry’s Artist Outlet on celebrating its 10th year in business. Owners Allen and Bonnie Shefts were recently written up in the Baristanet Blog and the review was glowing. “Jerry’s stands somewhere in between the big box store behemoths and the intimate boutique art supply store, Flannery’s Corner, which closed in 2006. It’s big enough to have a huge variety of items in stock, but it’s staffed by real artists, who can tell you why a Kolinsky watercolor brush sells, discounted, for $286.” Check out the photo slide show too: Jerrys Artist Outlet-10th Anniversary
