Something Fun for Everyone

Paper Vision has been doing business in Downtown Santa Cruz since 1906, under the original name of Plaza Stationery. Current owners, Rob and Yuko, took over the business following the 1989 Loma Prieta Earthquake.

At Paper Vision, our passion is to provide unique cards and gifts for customers of all ages. We support local artists and contribute to local school and organizations. We carry a large selection of greeting cards, toys, calendars, children's books, posters and prints, and much more.

We are open every day of the week from 11am to 4pm. Just give us a call at 831-458-1345 or head over to "Contact Us" to send us a message!
