Debunking the Climate Control Myth
Many aspiring artists believe they need to invest in expensive climate-controlled storage for all their art supplies. At Arts District Cannabis, we frequently hear this concern from our creative community members, but it’s time to set the record straight.
While certain materials do require specific storage conditions, most common art supplies are more resilient than you might think. Here’s what you actually need to know:
The Truth About Art Supply Storage:
- Regular room temperature is sufficient for most supplies
- Basic protection from direct sunlight is adequate
- Standard household humidity levels work fine
- Simple organization systems are effective
The most important factors are keeping supplies:
– Away from extreme temperature fluctuations
– Protected from direct sunlight
– In a clean, dry space
– Organized and accessible
Many artists unnecessarily spend hundreds of dollars on specialized storage solutions when simple plastic bins or drawers would suffice. The key is consistency in storage practices rather than maintaining precise environmental conditions.
Remember, traditional artists have created masterpieces for centuries without modern climate control. While some specialized materials may require specific care, most art supplies are designed to be stable under normal indoor conditions.
