About Splintercraft Artisan Works & Supply
Splintercraft Artisan Works & Supply is more than a store—it’s a workshop, a local resource, and a bridge to the past.
Founded in Huntsville, Texas, Splintercraft blends traditional arts with modern tools. From hand-picked art supplies to custom demonstrations of early 20th-century printing techniques, we serve artists, students, and creative minds with a taste for quality and heritage.
Housed near the historic downtown square, we’ve revived a working letterpress studio featuring original equipment from the late 1800s and early 1900s. It’s not just a display—it prints.
What We Offer:
- Professional-grade art supplies for printmaking, drawing, painting, and more
- Workshops & demonstrations rooted in hands-on craft and community
- Custom-cut materials & curated tools designed to support working artists and serious hobbyists
- Historical print shop experiences featuring live demonstrations and education
- Partnerships with educators and students from Sam Houston State University and beyond
Who We Serve:
- College art students seeking better materials close to campus
- Practicing artists in need of specialty tools and professional guidance
- Tourists looking for something authentic, functional, and rooted in Texas craft history
- Community members curious about the trades, typography, and print culture
