UnknownDengerink Art Supply has moved to 1015 Main St., just five blocks from their original location, to Angst Gallery. Angst provides a beautiful setting and a friendly atmosphere for the art supply store. Locating art supplies in an art gallery creates a space for creative synchronicity.

Dengerink Art Supply is a small, independent art supply store featuring high quality art materials. It is open Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, from noon to 5 p.m., and by arrangement. Owner Erin Dengerink began researching the possibility of starting an art supply store in 2013 as she was finishing up her Masters degree at the Pacific Northwest College of Art.

An open house is slated for Saturday, June 25, from 2 to 5 p.m., at Angst. Visitors can expect demos, refreshments, hands-on use, balloons and more. For more information contact Erin Dengerink at Dengerinkart@gmail.com.
