Fabric Shopping Nyc

Where can I find wide scenery canvas for painting a mural?

I am painting a mural and I need about 5 yards of the 72″ scenery canvas. Unfortunately, dharmatrading.com is out of stock of that particular kind of canvas. Is there any store or website that sells this product at a similar price? I’m thinking some sort of secret shop in NYC or something. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

All better artist supply stores sell unstretched canvas, both primed and unprimed, in several different grades. These are called bolts of canvas. There is a Dick Blick’s in NYC that should have bolts of 72″ canvas in stock.

There is also a Pearl Artist Supply in Manhattan that should have the 72″ canvas bolts in stock.

With all the serious and wannabe artists in So-Ho and the Village I’m pretty sure there are others in and around NYC than sell canvas by the yard. I doubt if Jackson Pollock used dharmatrading.com to buy all the yards of canvas he used to do his large action paintings.
