Months after acquiring locally-owned Primary Arts Supply and moving a few blocks east on Broughton Street in what seems so far to be a very mutually beneficial transaction, Blick Art Materials has bought out its remaining downtown corporate competitor.

Blick Art Materials has purchased the stock of Utrecht Art Supplies, which owns a store on MLK Jr. Boulevard on the west side of downtown. Blick CEO Robert Buchsbaum says “The acquisition of Utrecht gives us a tremendous, well-established brand and greater geographic reach for our brick and mortar channel.”
