"We recently had a short run of digitally printed brochures done by CW and were super impressed with the quality and attention to detail. The quality was as good as if we had done this on huge offset machines, and we really appreciated the team's help in making the right stock and bindery choices. Was it more expensive than generic-online-printer.com? Sure, but buying locally from a company that puts a premium on quality and customer service is going to cost more. But the payback to our community's bottom line is priceless."

Lark Dente (previously Jenna)

Print + Web Specialist

They/Them

Lark (previously Jenna) has always been interested in visual art, and spent probably more than their fair share of the household ink and paper as a child (someone had to make sure the color cartridges didn’t dry out) making short comics and flip books. When a family friend referred them to CW in 2013, they felt there couldn’t have been a better choice for their first job.
