Hungry Ghost Press is an artist-owned and operated business that aims to create items in-house while learning to work with new methods of sustainable and eco friendly processes. We strive to create projects in hopes of exploring art and its relation to clothing and tangible products in a commercial world. From screen printing to sublimation with eco-friendly inks, to hand-sewn one-of-a-kind jackets and mini-collections of up-cycled vintage and deadstock clothing, to hand-carved block prints and sculpted jewelry, we love making things and working with talented artists we know, have met and employ to create new releases throughout the year.

 

Hungry Ghost Press started off as a small zine and art DIY book press operation in early 2010 and has since grown into a lifestyle apparel and accessory brand that aligns and works with artists, bands, and brands, both large and small, in collaborative projects.

 

Hungry Ghost Press has a mission to create items in-house and to learn and work with new creation methods in hopes of exploring art and its relation to clothing and tangible products in a commercial world. From screen printing to sublimation, to hand-sewn one-of-a-kind jackets and mini collections, to hand-carved block prints and sculpted jewelry, we love making things and working with talented artists we know, have met and employ to create new releases throughout the year. Personally, the artwork Hungry Ghost Press puts out is important because so much of it is a reflection of myself and the people and artists we choose to work with. We try to create fun yet serious items, cute but grim, minimal but still garish, knowing that we all experience and enjoy these extremes and are constantly changing people in a constantly changing world. 

 

HGPress also offers in-house design, specialty projects and creative consultation services for both small and large businesses alike as well for bands, record labels, independent artists, clothing brands and other media operations.

From logo design to limited-edition jackets or event proposals and planning people’s future merchandise releases, we can work with individuals to make something unique that fits their style. 

 

We hope to bring a new chapter of Hungry Ghost Press alive with our store's expansion and the Deli Gallery's creation, along with pop-ups held in conjunction with the Lonelyville Markets. We hope to continue connecting and collaborating with the local community and beyond with these new endeavors. 

 

We are proud to employ local Rhode Island residents and to be representatives in our neighborhood where we live and work. Currently, we are working with the Providence Housing Authority and the Office of Economic Opportunity's interning program, taking in multiple students from nearby high schools and working with them to gain job experience and to show what it takes to run a small business. We also participate in the MET High School's internship program, where we have taken in a student for the entire four years they are enrolled in the school. We are proud that we were able to work with the city to ensure that all of these internship programs are paid so that students get the experience and wage they deserve. Hungry Ghost Press also encourages our employees to experiment, create and expand their own artistic careers, brands and companies. We hope we can help them bring to life their craft as a functional business and continue adding to our budding community of entrepreneurs in Rode Island.
