A four story wonderland of fabulous art supplies, gift ideas, framing, furniture, awesome children's educational/creative supplies, lighting, presentation materials, crafts, scrap booking, fine paper products, pens, and more!!! I could have spent all day there and never be bored! I went in to get one sketch pad and came out with the sketch pad, gifts for my siblings birthdays, wonderful gifts for my nieces to inspire their creative minds and an order for a cool table and chairs for my apartment. Super convenient location on 57th near the subway, bus and parking garages. Worth a trip from anywhere. One stop shopping for all that inspires you!!!

Lee's is an institution. Be it art supplies, framing, lighting, etc. Lee's most likely has it or can get it. The service is outstanding with knowledgable and helpful staff.

I used to work next door to Lee's. I'd go in on my lunch hour just to poke around. They have an amazing selection of gifty type books, journals, and cards. There's also a good selection of portfolios and presentation paraphenalia in the back. They also have all the requisite art supplies: pens, papers, photo albums, paints, etc.
