Introducing an art school in the classical tradition, Bridgeview School of Fine Arts. Here is what they say:

At Bridgeview we are here to guide you in your search of what lies beneath the surface. It is the invisible in art that needs to be found, not the visible.The most important reason I draw and paint is because I can see my ideas that are in my mind on paper. At Bridgeview we welcome both beginners and advanced students. Our classes are small, so you get a lot of guidance.Our tuition fees are extremely reasonable ($8 - $10 per hour of instruction).We have outstanding teachers with many years of experience. Some of them have their work in major museums in America and Russia. Despite their achievements, they are sincere and kind people, approachable and eager to teach you whatever they know themselves. So, we hope to see you this winter in our studios in Long Island City, Queens. We are one subway stop from Lexington Avenue stop on E and V and one stop from Grand Central on #7. G train is also nearby.

Did you know that Utrecht Art Supplies mills its paints and gesso in a factory located here in Brooklyn? Did you know that in 1949, Norman and Harold Gulamerian from New Utrecht began importing fine linen from Europe and started the company as Utrecht Linens?

Be green - Stop over at the Union Square Farmers Market and walk two blocks south to Utrecht Art Supplies to purchase your paint from a store that can boast 75 years of manufacturing locally.
