Ampersand Art Supply Headquarters

Ampersand Art Supply, headquartered in Buda, Texas, is committed to empowering artists by developing innovative and superior quality surfaces. Founded to revive the tradition of panel painting, Ampersand offers a range of surfaces from Claybord to Gessobord, supporting all media from oils to watercolor. Their Museum Series panels are handcrafted in the USA with conservator-quality materials, ensuring archival protection for artworks.

Ampersand provides opportunities for artists to learn and grow through events, workshops, and tutorials. These include in-person and online art workshops, in-store events, and art exhibitions. One example is the Wax Collagraph & Encaustic Retreat in Mexico, which combines encaustic and printmaking techniques. Another is an online mentorship program focusing on watercolor on Aquabord™.
