Paints and papers, drawing pencils, Modge Podge, and art books for kids are neatly organized and ready to go. Galatea’s Art Supplies is full of everything an artist will need to get busy. In fact, this is a place where even the youngest members of your family will find something to engage and inspire.

But more than a place to pick up items on your art supply list in order to complete your next big idea, this Indiana art shop also has workshop space. It was such a creative spot. I loved peeking at the owner’s current project. She had her books of inspiration and her paints and the brushes all laid out. It was interesting to see an artist at work. She makes it look so easy.

Now, if you are ready to get to work, Galatea’s Art Supplies and Gifts should be on your “must visit” list as you make your Indiana travel plans. You can find classes available for kids and adults in a variety of art mediums. You might create a great gift or learn how to transfer photos to canvas (an art workshop idea currently in the works) for unique one-of-a-kind art that just screams YOU. I love when an art shop does more than sell supplies. The classes here are actually classes you will want to use. There’s nothing fussy or outdated about them. In fact, you will actually want to display the end result. Do call ahead to find out when the next class is available.
