An Important Note About Professional Grade Artist Materials

All of the art and fiber art supply products we sell are professional grade and thus sometimes come with hazards that are important to know and understand. While the majority of the products we sell are non-toxic, in order for paint makers to create certain pigments (such as Cadmium colors) - they use some toxic or hazardous materials. 

This is where the Art and Creative Materials Institute (ACMI) comes in. The ACMI is a non-profit trade association which conducts a certification program in which product formulas are analyzed and certified by as non-toxic or properly labeled. ACMI certification also ensures compliance to state and federal labeling regulations. You will find these labels on most of our paints and some other products.

Some of our products also have Proposition 65 Warnings as required by the State of California. Read more about Prop 65.
