Mission Statement

Through first class service, Urban Press consistently meets the many challenges our clients bring us every day. Building strong and positive professional relationships helps our clients grow and manage their businesses and organizations more easily and effectively.

Company History

In 1983, Karen Jensen and Patty Carlisle started Urban Press in the damp basement of a house on Capitol Hill. Over the years, the business moved to commercial space, gained employees, became a union shop and invested in equipment as the printing and graphics industry has changed.

We launched this cutting-edge Web site to make it easier for our clients to request estimates, place orders, check proofs, or transfer files online. We hope you find it as helpful as we do.
