The best book, hobby & craft shops in Springfield

“Run by artists for artists, Oregon Art Supply has been Eugene’s creative go-to for 27 years, with everything from paints and printmaking tools to journals, textiles, and kid-friendly picks. Check out their classes and Studio North gallery and classroom to kickstart a new project or finally finish that one.”
