Pricing

All Star Press offers high-quality, flat stock printing, including screenprinting and giclée (digital archival prints). In addition to our standard pricing below, we also offer customized pricing structures, depending on the types of print, volume, and other specifications you require. 

Other services we offer include but are not limited to: 

• Curation

As well as being a premier print shop in Chicago, we've also been a part of the art community here for nearly two decades. We enjoy connecting artists with new clients including the Bulls, the White Sox, the Blackhawks, music venues throughout the city including the Metro, the Vic, and many more.

• Gig Posters

Our printing roots rest in music. We've been creating and printing gig posters for years. We've previously printed for Pitchfork, Chance the Rapper, Elton John, Rolling Stone Magazine, Lollapalooza, Patti Smith and more. 

• Gallery Space

All Star Press has been a gallery for over a decade, curating group and solo shows with artists from all over the world. We've organized and hosted events, partnered with other galleries such as Thinkspace and Vertical Gallery. Recently, we've been facilitating more solo shows and building out more experiential environments, such as The Art of the Game for Bulls Fest 2022. 

• Design Work

Our design work has encompassed projects for the likes of Rolling Stone and  book design for the Violet Hour. As a lead printmaking studio, design and illustration has always been at the forefront of what we do. It is woven into our production work, as well as our curation. Our house rate for these services is $90/hour. 

• File Separation

This is a service we offer for anyone who is either releasing work through us or needs file separation for their own printing projects. Our rate for this service is $15/hour.
