Chicago’s only Pearl location at Chicago Ave and Franklin, under the Chicago Brown line train is closing it’s doors. The company apparently has decided to close a number of locations around the country. Chicago has a limited number of art supply stores and a growing number of artists. Pearl will be closing it’s doors January 31st. Everything in the store is 75% off so get it while it’s cheap!
I went yesterday, the store is quite picked over, they are also getting rid of flat files, shelving, and furnitre. If your int he market for such things, you may be able to get a sweet deal.
Oh I am going to miss Pearl!
