Wonderful art and the owner Phillip and chewbacka his furry friend were darling. If you want some beautiful its a must do.

Very nice gallery and book store with many different types of art and book selection. Just went in to browse and the staff was very friendly and helpful. Would certainly return.

I happened upon this over the weekend and really enjoyed myself. A very well picked eclectic mix of art, jewelry, and books with some alcohol to keep everything mellow and warm. Definitely worth a visit if you come to town.

SUCH a welcoming environment. Nicest staff. A very interesting and diverse collection of art, books, jewelry, etc. New favorite spot in Scottsdale for art!

What an incredible place!! Me and my friends happened to be in old town one night and ended up in this gallery. I could say endless great things about Phillip and his great dog Chewbacca. The art and atmosphere here was amazing, I will definitely be going back again soon. 10/10 would recommend to anyone!

The art is always changing, there are always an amazing selection of books! They also have jewelry from local artists 🎨

Loved this place. Truly a gem. With more money to spend (I’m a broke college kid), I would’ve bought a lot. The owner was great. He talked to us when we wanted, left us to browse and didn’t stare us down the entire the entire time. Really love the Dr. Seuss images. They were incredible!Check it out, even just for browsing. It was quite a good experience.

Words dont adequately describe Phillip, his crew and the gallery. All around amazing people that have that style, taste and grace so many other galleries lack. The showroom is like you are in a dream with art that takes your imagination to another level. Cant wait to visit it again.

I have seen this wonderful Gallery evolve since first opening 3 years ago. The ambience, colection and personal attention are what makes this an amazing place to visit. Philip the owner an amazing, accomplished artist himself is their personaly greet you. Gina, the gallery manager an artist herself is both warm and knowledgeable. I highly recommend the gallery as an important place to visit when in the area.. I have been showing my work and selling for the past 2 years! LUCIS

We stopped in November 4th and had a delightful time with Phillip. So very interesting. He made us feel right at home. His artwork is awesome. I wish I could buy everything in his showroom. I am an interior designer, it takes a lot to impress me.

Amazing works of art. Great selection of books. Corny jokes from the owner Phillip. This place is awesome. You are sure to enjoy your time there and find something unique to take home with you. I visit frequently to see their new works of art. They are always adding something new and exciting. Their regular events are a lot of fun too!

Awesome store! We were there at a book signing!

Mazing gallery. Loved the art and hope that my daughter marries the owner someday. What an amazing man. So deep and genuine. Pray for us.

I was blessed to have a private event dedicated to my mother in this venue. Amazing people connected to this group. I look forward to being more involved and think you should be too.

Stumbled on Anticus quite by accident! And what a happy accident!This gallery is full of wonderful surprises in a great variety of fine art, books and jewelry!If you’re lucky enough to visit when the owner Phillip is there, (he’s there a lot, unless he’s traveling) he will give you a personal tour and tell you great stories of his own journey in the art world. Be sure to ask him about very own creations!The jewelry is so beautiful! Gina really has a gift in her creations, as all do all the other artists.Plan some time to hang around, sit down in some comfy furniture and grab a book or just gaze at the lovely surroundings!You will be greeted by his lovely little doodle buddy at the door!The moment you walk in, you’ll feel such positive vibes, you know you’ll come back for more!

First of all, I dont usually write reviews. Im writing one for Anticus because this place struck me as so out of the norm for stores of its kind. Like many other reviewers, I stumbled upon the store while visiting Scottsdale and Im so glad I did. My husband, uncle and I went in to browse and we were greeted by Cindy (I hope I have her name right) who was warm, welcoming, and could not have been more helpful. The store is inviting from the outside and, once inside, it does not disappoint. I could have sat there all day among the books, beautiful works of art, and gorgeous jewelry, but we were unfortunately short on time.On a 2nd trip back to the store on the same day, we got to meet the owner and sculptor, Phillip, who was just as kind and warm as Cindy had been to us. Its no wonder this place has so many 5 star reviews and happy customers.We made several gift purchases (all which will be treasured) but I could see from the short time I was there that each person who entered that store was treated with the same warmth and level of service whether they came in to browse, sit or make a purchase.Have since told many people about this store ...I wish Phillip and his staff and artists much success.

This is a wonderful gem of a store. Great vibe. The art is incredible and diverse and sometimes you can meet the artists. Great eclectic books and areas to sit and enjoy your read. They have game nights, book club nights and other events. So glad there is a store like this in Northern Phoenix/ Scottsdale. The staff is great too.

A group of art lovers attended a sculpting demonstration by Phillip, the owner - it was very informative, educational and an all around wonderful evening. The store is a very interesting blend of books, art, jewelry and more - very much like being in your own home. Great selection of jewelry - have purchased several pieces at Anticus. Service is very personal and friendly - a refreshing way to do business!

This places work is AMAZING!!! Me and my dad are visiting Arizona and stumbled upon this place and is probably one of the coolest stores I’ve ever been to! They were super awesome and easy to talk to and it was overall a fun time. This is also coming from a 15 year old who’s never really been to interested in art but this place was amazing. This place is a must see if you ever go to Arizona!

A friend of mine told me about this wonderful store. Beautiful art, lots of interesting books, and unique jewelry. I bought myself some great silver earrings that I get compliments on all the time! The clerk was super friendly and helpful too!

This is a unique shop. They sell some of my favorite things-books, art and jewelry. Great place to go for a unique gift. The jewelry and art showcase some great artists. Nice atmosphere and great staff!

The guys who run the bookstore are AWESOME!! I was in town for a conference and stopped in to get directions during the heat of the day. I was on a mission to find a store that carried AAA batteries. I did not have a car and discovered the nearest store was still too far to walk. They provided me with not only a bottle of water but also the 3 batteries I was in need of. Very grateful for their warm hospitality. I hope to make it back before I leave town so I can spend more time to explore the store!

Our visit was short but truly inspiring and educational. We were wandering by, admiring the beautiful art in the window when we decided to pop in on a whim. The owner was happy to answer our questions, explain intricate art processes to us, and show us unique pieces that all had stories to tell. I am not an artist nor much of an art enthusiast but our visit was a genuine pleasure. We just might start filling up some of our big empty walls on the house.

Anticus is a store that you feel very comfortable in and can browse the exhibition of books, fine art and jewelry at your leisure and not be pestered by sales staff. A very warm and iviting atmosphere.Our interest was mystery and movie books. The layout of these sections is interesting and inviting.The original sculptures are masterpieces.

My wife and I decided to have our daughter babysat and went on a spontaneous date to this area! On our first date 7 years ago we found a special book that has branched into our relationship in indescribable ways. When my wife saw this store, she immediately wanted to see inside. We went in and we loved the beautiful display or art, from beginning clay processes to finished art from local artist, to books from every genre, including books on political from every point of view to interesting one offs that will catch your eye. We ultimately left when a book based on the movie My Neighbor Tortoro, which was my favorite childhood movie!

This Gallery is many faceted, sculptor owner Phillip Paine really did his homework by adding jewelry, books. Even classes! Come sit and enjoy it all around you.... terrific job. Reg Jackson.

This is a wonderful space to refresh your spirit with art and books. Top notch art, a broad selection of titles, and a knowledgeable, friendly staff add up to a great way to escape some Phoenix heat for an afternoon. If youre lucky, you might even catch the owner Philip at work sculpting in the gallery!

The atmosphere felt very relaxing. They had books that no other book store stocked. Beautiful art work, nice jewelry, very inviting staff. I encourage people to go check this place out. You’ll be glad you did! 😃

I spent most of an afternoon visiting with Philip during a trip in January, 2019. What a beautiful store with artwork that I couldnt wait to purchase. Some of Philips bronze sculptures were very impressive, two I still plan to purchase when we have finished moving. But how I enjoyed and learned about the artwork in my discussion with Philip. I cant wait to return to Arizona to visit Anticus again. Jim Jagger.

Incredible staff, unique items and a real at home feel. I highly recommend stopping in for books, art or jewelry. They host little events at their store which look to be pretty cool too (havent gone to one YET).

Anticus - Fine Art, Books, Jewelry & Design is a fabulous store for everyone who loves art, books and jewelry - it is a bookstore, an art studio, a gallery, a jewelry store - all in one - it is the kind of a store you could spend a whole afternoon. Everyone who works there makes you feel you are special and guide you to exactly what you are looking for - wether you know what that is or not! I recommend this store to everyone I know who are looking for something special. Nobody will be disappointed.

This gallery is a rare gem in the Sonoran desert. The gallery owner, Phillip, is a master sculptor with a tremendous eye for all kinds of magnificent art. From original oils on canvass, to sculptors of all designs and sizes, to handcrafted furniture, to hard bound and hard to find books, you will be assured of finding a beautiful piece of art which will enrich your life. In addition, Phillip is very down to earth, easy to talk to, and is reasonable with the pricing. He also hosts regular events with a featured artist which adds immeasurable to collecting a piece from that artist. I cannot recommend this gallery more highly. You will be richly rewarded by visiting.

Such a mix of emotions. This was an incredible find. We were lucky to meet the artist and owner which added to the beauty of the experience. Its a unique and truly serene experience to walk through the gallery.

The woman working the floor was very friendly. The dog that met us at the door was super friendly and really enjoys a good belly rub. The artwork was beautiful, the sculptures were great and the book selection and layout was wonderful. Well be back soon!!

They have a really good variety of things to look at in the shop. The people who work there are also very nice were very helpful. I would return and purchase more items from them.

I found this bookstore/gallery a few weeks ago, after a recommendation from friends in the book business. Anticus is a gorgeous venue and a breath of fresh air in the Scottsdale art scene. They had me at books, and kept me browsing with beautifully crafted and curated art. Looking forward to stopping in again, soon!

What a wonderful experience in customer service! Had a friend in from Australia, and happened to wander in....met Phillip the owner and artist who was delightful and gave us a tour and told stories about the pieces of art. It was such a refreshing experience, not being pestered to buy, but really engaging you with the art. They have added books to the store too. I would highly recommend a visit to Anticus, especially if you are looking for some interesting pieces of art for your home or business!

Anticus is a really great place to browse and buy! They have the coolest art, really interesting books and very knowledgeable and talented staff. The most adorable, friendly shop-dog holds court here, too. Do yourself a favor and stop in and look around. Our whole family is crazy about this place.

I have never had a bad experience at Anticus...it’s my happy place! Just wish I had tons of money and room in my home..I like pretty much everything in the gallery. Recommend to one and all...even children

A Hidden Gem! Mixing sculpture, sunlight, books, a cafe, nicely priced jewelry, and a sweet dog, this shopping space has something for everyone. I cant believe its been around for over two years, and Im only just now discovering it. When Barnes and Noble left Kierland, I felt unhappy that there was no bookstore to prowl ... now I feel glad to find this wonderful spot to fill the niche!

Anticus is an elegant, yet extraordinarily inviting and friendly spot to browse among beautiful, unique objects of art and literature. Once inside you truly find it hard to leave as one display leads to another. For those not yet appreciative of fine art and talent, this is a great initiation without intimidation.

Wonderful atmosphere of kind, helpful people, books, art, furniture, jewelry, and free coffee 🤗. Fun to roam the store and sit and read. Staff is very knowledgeable and helpful. They organize a book club and frequent author events. I will definitely try to visit frequently.

Just discovered Anticus a few months ago and was very impressed by the selection of fine art, books and jewelry. I was so thrilled with the jewelry that I had to purchase a few pieces. A must see Art gallery! Philip, Doc and staff make you feel right at home, not to mention all the knowledge they have to share.

I always visit Anticus when I go to Scottsdale. Their selection of artwork is impeccable and interesting. And the bonus of it being a well-stocked bookstore is delightful. The staff are all friendly, knowledgeable, and considerate. Owner Phillip sets the tone for making it a must-visit art gallery. Its my favorite!

Whenever we are at Kierland Commons, we stop at Anticus. The fine art, jewelry and books are exceptional. Each time, we find something for ourselves or as a gift. Even if you do not plan to buy anything, give yourself the gift of browsing the Gallery. Phillip, Alex, Doc, Chewy, the resident pup, and the rest of the team will warmly welcome you, gladly tell you about the artists and their art, and NEVER pressure you to make a purchase. They also will leave you to wander and not interfere. You will have a wonderful time at Anticus.

I was a resident of Scottsdale for years and now I come back to visit family 4 times a year. I have taken my Grandmother multiple times( she is in a wheel chair ), she loves Anticus and it’s very roomy and spacious to wheel her around to all the delights. I have also taken my Aunt and Uncle and my mother.Please do yourself a favor, go to this very special place. It is a cultural treat in Kierland where you can experience an escape away from the retail. You can have a glass of wine and read a book on the sofa, pet Chewbacca the cutest dog that looks like a teddy bear and have the opportunity to see such a dynamic collection of visual art.I have purchased art and books from Anticus and it has always been a pleasure. Please do yourself a favor and go.(And take a loved one❤️)

Anticus is the best. Phillips passion for his work makes Anticus different from the sterile environment of most art venues. Few galleries of this size have both the depth and diversity of media and styles. More importantly, through their community events they create a cultural hearth for the Scottsdale area. If you havent been, go.

Amazing, helpful and friendly staff. Theyve got an amazing, and awesome selection of beautiful art pieces from local artists as well as cool books.If need be, theyre more than welcome to order a book for you.

What an amazing experience! My girlfriend and I went near closing time recently. We were greeted by the owner and an employee with the store. They were both extremely knowledgeable and friendly. They took the time to answer our myriad of questions and even treated us to some wine and had us sit down and watch a short clip about how sculptures are made. It felt like we were visiting friends more so than an art gallery. Definitely recommend to anyone!

Love this place. Love the books and the art is interesting. Combine that with the folks who run the place and you have a great experience. Go to Anticus check out the cool stuff and just enjoy the ambience!

This is a very special place! Great go to for gifts, your next good read or a getaway to browse and marvel at the sculpture. It’s a go to spot for me now to take friends. Thanks, Anticus Team!

I love this place! The employees are so friendly as well as extremely knowledgeable! One of my favorite stores at Kierland!! Go and explore!!! Trust me it’s worth the trip!!!

Such a unique space in our area. Incredible to see a curated selection of books rather than just the top 20 publishers force you to choose from. Really great store

I stumbled upon Anticus and so glad I did. The book selection is superb! A great shop for a unique gift; whether art, hand made jewelry, or a high quality read.

My granddaughter Natalie and I discovered Anticus when she was in town visiting. An aspiring artist, she and I were searching for galleries and I remembered one in Kierland. When we walked into Anticus, we fell in love with it. A combination art gallery and book store, we felt like we could curl up on a couch and stay there forever. And I was really impressed with how she, at 16, was treated with respect and every question was answered kindly. Bonus -- usually Chewie the dog will great you happily at the door. Whats not to love? Ive been back a few more times to watch the live sculpting demo from the owner. You owe it to yourself to check this place out!

What a fabulous book, game, and art shop! Well-curated book selection. I particularly loved the multi-media David Bowie portrait.

One of the most authentic, diverse, and wholesome art gallery and book stores I have been to. The artists and atmosphere were kind and inviting. It was definitely a highlight of my time in Phoenix and I would have spent more time there had I been able to.

Interesting eclectic book, art, sculpture.and craft jewelry store. Fun place to browse and hang out.Close to a couple of good cafe and restaurants. Great location at Kierland on the W corner for finding parking and getting in and out

Great gallery in north Scotsdale.. Collections are broad and interesting.. New addition of books is also an added bonus, plus the Thursday open housesPhillip and staff are helpful and courteous.. The dog is pretty cute too...

Atticus is a charming shop in the Kierland shopping area owned by a young sculptor and his wife. They have beautiful art for sale as well as books and artisan jewelry. They hold a monthly book club discussion along with many artist receptions and demonstrations. Art work is high quality and the prices reflect that. It is the kind of local business that is worth supporting, and now that they have expanded their offerings, there are affordable options for everyone. Great place to browse and buy.

Lovely shop! Great spot to get a new book, pet a cute puppy and see local art up close and personal.

We love Anticus! Fabulous art and books galore!Staff is very friendly and knowledgeable.One of our favorite places!!

What a find! Fine art and fine books in a spacious, unique setting. I love Anticus--the art, the books, and the friendly staff. This place is worth going out of your way for.

Upon entering the space known as Anticus I noticed an energy that was growing from a silent invitation to Beauty. The fine art, jewelry and design inviting me to be a part of the creation. The great books linking pathways to connection with a life filled with endless creativity. Add to that the owner, sculpter, and storyteller, who awakens me to see a diverse beauty of possibilities in a time that has enough everyday difficulties for us all. I wish that Atticus was located in Minneapolis.

It has been our pleasure to watch Desert Mountain, and now Anticus, evolve as an art gallery displaying numerous types of painting styles and sculpture to become so much more. The addition of complimentary books, jewelry, and even more paintings and sculptures, plus the opportunity to meet with the artists makes Anticus a truly unique gallery to visit . Our newest piece from BC Nowlin is fantastic and the autographed book a great compliment .

Excellent, well-curated selection of books with recommendations from independent bookstores across the country. Good variety of artists and styles in the gallery (painting, sculpture, carvings, furniture), as well as artisan jewelers. Friendly, engaged staff and owner/artists.

Helpful employees and a awesome array of works by various artists. Bright and inviting displays. Enjoyed my experience very much!!!

Anticus is a gem with so many interesting pieces of art, jewelry and books all at reasonable, competitive pricing. The only problem is spending so much time browsing and deciding just what to buy when you want everything!

This is a great gallery, the owner and his staff are very friendly, knowledgeable plus they have great shows, artists demonstrations so many great things they bring out.

Love the atmosphere and diverse selection of items. Great place to find uniques gifts, specifically jewelry or books.

The ambiance, energy and beauty of this bookstore/gallery are unparralleled. The staff and shop-dog will steal your heart and your mind. After visiting Anticus, you will be counting the hours until you can return.

Anticus is a great shop! The books, book club and art are wonderful plus the ambiance is so comfortable and welcoming !

Great collection and a very knowledgeable (and friendly) staff - enjoyed myself!

What an ouitstanding experience. My visit and overview of the store created a passion in me for the world of statues and antiquity. I highly recommend a visit for you. Ill certainly be back!

This is fantastic store that combines a great variety of books with beautiful and interesting art in many mediums. Well worth a visit!

My wife and I stopped in after dining at a nearby restaurant. I find that most galleries have one or two artists that I like and a lot that seem to be filler. Not here. The art across all mediums was exceptional. Standouts were Ken and Phillip Paynes bronze work, Paige Bradleys sculptures, and BC Nowlins paintings. Phillip and his dog Chewie made us feel welcome and enthusiastically answered questions. Great experience!

Beautiful gallery! We were so impressed with the items displayed and with owner and bronze sculptor Phillip Payne! Delightful time. Be sure to stop in while in Scottsdale!

Loved the exhibition of Troy Collins art work.Wonderful selection of art and bronzes in the gallery. Lovely pieces for your home or office.I look forward to my next visit when I am in Scottsdale.

I love going in here. Its a whole package, beautiful art, great stories, and a wonderful ambiance. Highly recommended.

My wife and I shop at Anticus frequently. Phillip and his staff are always very friendly and accommodating. They have a wide variety of exceptional artwork, and their displays are expertly done.

This gallery sells my jewelry so I must recuse myself from telling you that its a fantastic interesting gallery which YOU MUST GO SEE.......NOW!!!!!

Incredible art! Staff take really good care of you, do not pressure you to buy anything, its perfectly okay to go & enjoy the art. Easy to fall in love with the art, amazing artists!

This is the only art gallery that I really enjoy going to. The owner is super friendly, highly recommend!

Great store with a lot of very unusual art. I stop by every time I go thru Scottsdale, sometimes just to say hello and learn about some of the unusual pieces in the store. There are stories behind all of them. Next trip, I hope to bring my favorite one home.

Great art space. The fine selection of books is worth a visit alone!

Very professional and knowledgeable, helped on-site picking the right look for my project. They give a lot of their own time to give me the attention on-site that was needed.

Anticus - a wonderful gallery experience of embracing the Fine Arts - painting, sculpture, jewelry, photography and a literary shelf with a great selection of books - where words live.

If you love art or books, this is a fun place. Lots of events going on.

Beautiful gallery

Wide variety of fine art at fair prices. Phillip and his crew are knowledgeable, friendly and helpful but never pushy.

Anticus is a gem! I wandered in one evening to discover a n inviting ambiance of curated books, paintings and sculptures!

Come for the artwork, leave because of the terrible puns. But, with artwork.

Love this store .. friendly staff, great arts and books and they have awesome events

This is the best gallery in the Scottsdale/ Phoenix area. It is a must visit for anyone interested in fine art, books or jewelry.

Anticus Gallery has the very best in Southwestern Art and is continually adding new artists and displays. Knowledgeable and helpful staff make visits a pleasure and an enjoyable time well spent.

Fantastic customer service and beautiful works of art. A great place for any art lover to enjoy.

Just like a good bookstore should be - inviting, good selection of books, surrounded by art, and very nice staff. Wish I lived closer!

What a great find!!! Such a unique gallery, And theyre very personable....

Very friendly staff and a fun environment.

Variety of books, sitting nooks and Chewbacca (dog) the best greeter of all!!!
