5.0 of 5 stars. I love Accent Arts. I've followed them from an earlier location at Charleston Corners to California Ave. It's like walking into a live art performance event, where the actors sell you art supplies....

Yelp.com Review - by Jennifer A.

3.0 of 5 stars. I frequent Accent Arts for school supplies I'm running late on buying. It's close, not a lot of my classmates seem to know about it [so they won't be out of stock of the thing I need] and they have a...

4.0 of 5 stars. People have complained that this place is a mess, but to be honest, I kinda like that. It's fun to wander around and check out the wide variety of high quality art supplies. If you can't find what...

Yelp.com Review - by f k.

1.0 of 5 stars. We used to get items framed here every year ($500 worth of stuff), and the service has just gotten worse. One day we came in to get items framed, and the person at the counter saw us, but continued...

Yelp.com Review - by Patty C.

4.0 of 5 stars. Yes, they are messy but how else would you stumble upon that random medium or material you didn't know you needed? This is not a chain store like University Arts where they mark up the price and then...

4.0 of 5 stars. Albeit I only have one other art supply store to compare it with, but I actually like this place. It was recommended by a watercolor instructor at the Palo Alto Art Center, and it upstages University...

Yelp.com Review - by Kevin S.

2.0 of 5 stars. They get two stars--one for having an unusually large number of brands of acrylic, my medium of choice, including some choices I don't find at other art supply stores in the Bay Area. And one for the...

Yelp.com Review - by bardot c.

1.0 of 5 stars. It's messy. They never stock the paper and stationary. And I can never find an associate to help me.And today, I walked by a display that was haphazardly on the floor, and it gashed me on the leg....

Yelp.com Review - by Modern C.

1.0 of 5 stars. This place is kind of weird, the employees are o.k., but a little "out there." The store is cluttered, but has a decent selection of oil paints. One star for good location and easy parking.

Yelp.com Review - by buttercup r.

1.0 of 5 stars. Messy, disorganized, much more expensive than University Art. Staffed by unfriendly, i'm-too-cool artists. I've got nothing against artists, but just because you're creative doesn't mean you can't be...
