Book Store

The Art Institute of Charlotte Supply Store is a specialized retail outlet. It carries most of the art supplies and books needed by students, as recommended by instructors and Academic Directors. This helps ensure that the student purchases the right books, materials, and supplies for each assigned project.

Supply Kits
The Supply Store purchases, packages and distributes first-quarter supply kits for new students. The kit contains supplies and textbooks carefully selected by the Academic Directors and the Academic Affairs Department. Most of the first-quarter kit items are professional tools that will last throughout your student career as well as most consumables that will be required the first quarter. Each kit contains a list of contents. If an item is missing or damaged, you should report this to the supply store within 10 business days of receiving the kit for a replacement. No replacements for the missing items will be provided after 10 business days.

Returns must be made with a receipt within 10 days of purchase to be able to get your method of payment back.
