Earlier this month Utrecht Tempe helped to sponsor the second annual Prismacolor Demo with classes at ASU, MCC, and SCC. Sanford rep Shelley Minnis visited over 15 classrooms to talk about this exciting line of products, give away samples, and raffle off door prizes. 20% off Prismacolor product coupons were given out as well.

Shelley will be back next year for another round, but if you have interest in product demos, let us know. Contact Tempe store manager Adam Crouse at (480)446-0800, or by email at store31@utrecht.com to set up your demo today!

One time manager Adam Crouse has rejoined the Utrecht Tempe team and has taken over for departed manager Paul Rock. A special thanks goes out to Paul as his three years in Tempe were special and successfull. Paul has taken control of our Salt Lake City store and will continue to do an excellent job for Utrecht. If you would like to contact Paul, you may do so at store33@utrecht.com. 

As for me, I am very excited to be back. After three years of running our Utrecht Chicago location, I come back to Tempe a little older, a little wiser, and a little more in tune with Utrecht and its local relationships. I hope to fill Paul’s shoes as best I can and keep building the quality relationships that we already have begun. Please feel free to contact me, or any of our staff for help whatever your artistic endevour may be!

Hi all…it’s Paul at Utrecht.  I’ve been a Tempe resident for a little over 3 years now and am amazed at how much the artist community has changed and grown in such a short time.  Since I’ve been here, we have a new Mesa Art Center, and the new Tempe Center for the Arts.  The Tempe Artists Guild, which was inactive for a few years, is finally up and running again with more members than ever.  And the new light-rail train with a stop right in front of our store will provide us with direct, traffic-free, access to the happening and ever-changing art scene in downtown Phoenix.

For those who are unfamiliar with our store, we are located on the northeast corner of University and Mill in the Cornerstone Shopping Center. Utrecht Tempe is a full service art supplies store carrying products from hundreds of national brands.  Although most of our customers are students at the area colleges, we also service many professional artists.  Utrecht prides itself on carrying top-quality, professional grade art products at the lowest prices possible.

In addition to selling art supplies, all of the employees at Utrecht Tempe are artists themselves, each with our own specialty.  I work in Watercolors and Acrylics, Cecilia is a wiz with colored pencils, and Gail likes to get down and dirty with clay.  The rest of our staff has interests in metal sculpture, printmaking, rubber molding, bookmaking, and airbrushing.  Of course, drawing inspiration from all of the cool art supplies that surround us, each of us also likes to dabble in other areas outside of our prime interests.  Our weekly shipments are the most exciting days for us, as we scramble to open boxes in anticipation of seeing and playing with the newest arrival of art supplies.

We don’t just sell art supplies; we are active members of the local artist community.  And I’ll warn you that if you come into the store to ask a question, you might not be able to shut us up for 20 minutes.  Art is our passion, and we feel lucky to work in an environment where we get to encourage that same passion in others.

So drop by sometime if you’re looking for art supplies or need help with your next project.  We’d love to see you!
