Cass Art
Cass Art is on a mission. A mission to fill every town with artists, underpinned by the company’s long standing manifesto. Cass Art is committed to encouraging everyone to realise their creative talents by providing the world’s top quality materials at the guaranteed best prices.
Cass Art is committed to encouraging everyone to realise their creative talents because we believe in the power of art, and we know the freedom and joy that it brings. Whether you’re 3 or 103, an art student, professional artist or someone who wants to pick up a paintbrush for the first time, we believe that art should be accessible to all.
We stock top quality art supplies from the world’s leading brands like Winsor & Newton, Faber-Castell and Daler Rowney, and offer them at guaranteed lowest prices. From oil painting to watercolour, acrylic paint, pens, pencils and sketchbooks, we stock a full range of artist supplies both in our shops and online.
All our staff are artists so that we can offer support and insight in all of our shops, with six in London, and one in Kingston, Bristol, Liverpool, Manchester, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Brighton and Birmingham. Cass Art also partners with some of the leading art names across the UK, including The National Gallery, The Royal Academy of Arts and National Galleries Scotland, as well as with local galleries and art institutions.
Mark Cass is the Founder and CEO of Cass Art, with over 30 years’ experience as a serial entrepreneur in the creative industries. He is also a trustee of the Cass Sculpture Foundation, a British charity that promotes contemporary British sculpture through public commissions and exhibitions.

Cass Art not only partners with some of the leading art brands across the UK, including The National Gallery, The Royal Academy of Arts, National Galleries Scotland and Sky Arts, it also works with local galleries and art institutions. Cass Art has a long-standing relationship with Pentagram, one of the world’s leading and award-winning design agencies. Over the years they have developed the graphic language of Cass Art, re-designed the store architecture to create light-filled, contemporary art spaces, and designed several of Cass Art’s own brand products.
Mark Cass’s original art store opened in 1984 at 13 Charing Cross Road. This site has been an art store for over 115 years next to the National Gallery. The next store opened in 2001 on Kensington High Street. The Soho store then followed in 2003, Charing Cross in 2004, the Islington Flagship in 2006 which boasts 7,500 square feet of retail space across three floors, Hampstead in 2010 and Kingston in 2012. Most recently they have opened outside of London in Glasgow, Bristol, Liverpool, Brighton, Birmingham, Manchester and Winchester.
