Why Vermont Chooses Amalgamated Culture Works 

As a "Vermont-born" business that started in a living room in the hills of Wallingford, we understand the unique needs of our local market. We aren't just web marketers; we are passionate printers with over 50 combined years of experience.

  • Tax-Free Advantage: In Vermont, there is no sales tax on clothing—meaning your custom apparel budget goes further when you shop locally with us. 

  • Wholesale & Retail Expertise: We specialize in "town pride" and resort apparel. If you run a Vermont campground, general store, or tourist destination, we can help you design retail-ready merchandise that moves. 

  • Eco-Conscious Options: We live and work in one of the most beautiful states in the country. We prioritize sustainable garment choices and efficient production to keep Vermont green. 

  • Personalized Service: Unlike the "online robots," our team of friendly humans is available to answer the phone and walk you through every step of your project. 

Custom Apparel for Every Vermont Occasion 

  • Corporate & Small Business: Custom branded tees for Vermont staples like breweries, cider mills, and local trades. 

  • Resorts & Tourism: High-end screen printing for ski areas, lakeshore resorts, and gift shops. 

  • Events & Schools: Reliable bulk orders for UVM student groups, Champlain College events, and local town festivals. 

  • Beyond the T-Shirt: We print on hats, tote bags, bandanas. If it can lay flat and get heated up we’ll print on it! We can also assist with custom embroidery, patches, and names/numbers for jerseys.

Whether you are prepping for a seasonal festival or outfitting a statewide workforce, we offer a massive selection of printable products.

We are proud to be the "go-to" printer for Chittenden County. Whether it’s at the Fletcher Free Library or the Burlington Farmer’s Market, our shirts are there. You’ve likely seen our work at one of Burlington’s many schools and colleges (we’ve printed for them all!) or at any number of Burlington businesses over the years like Muddy Waters, Queen City Yoga, Folino’s Pizza, and the Vermont Comedy Club just to name a few. We’ve also collaborated on projects with our fellow artist neighbors like SEABA Burlington, Moth Folk Studio, Eliza-Marie Phillip, Mean Folk, and local musicians such as Mal Maiz, The Edd, Split In Half, and Only Bands Records.

Frequently Asked Questions (Vermont Orders) 

  • Can we visit your shop?/Where are you?? You’re absolutely welcome to drop by and visit us in person! It’s nice to let us know you’re coming ahead of time but not necessary. Someone will be here to greet you Mon-Fri, 9-5. We’re a bit tucked away so we’ve made this handy map to help you find us. Just give us a call if you’re lost and we’ll pop our head out and wave you down!

  • In What Format Should I Submit My Artwork? Vector artwork is always best when available. File types like .AI, .EPS, and .PDF work great. If you don’t have vector artwork, high-resolution raster files such as .PSD or .PNG may work as well. If you’re unsure whether your file will work for printing, just send it over and we’ll take a look. Our art department can also help clean up or recreate artwork if needed.

  • What If I Don’t Have Artwork? No problem! We can help. Whether you have a rough idea, a sketch, or just a concept, our art department can work with you to develop something that will print well and look great on apparel. We do charge for design work when significant art creation is required, but we’re happy to talk through ideas and help you figure out what will work best for your project.

  • What Is The Minimum Order? Our minimum order is typically 12 pieces for custom screen printing. This allows us to keep pricing reasonable and make the setup process worthwhile for everyone involved.

  • How Long Does An Order Take? Turnaround time varies depending on the size of the order and how busy we are, but most jobs are completed within about 1–2 weeks after artwork approval. If you have a deadline, let us know! We’ll always do our best to accommodate rush orders when possible.

  • Can You Help Me Choose Shirts? Absolutely. There are hundreds of garment options available and we’re happy to help you find the right one for your project. Whether you’re looking for budget-friendly basics, soft retail-style shirts, workwear, or something sustainable, we can guide you toward the best option for your needs and budget.

  • Do You Print On Items Other Than T-Shirts? Yes! While t-shirts are the most common item we print, we can also decorate a wide variety of apparel and accessories including:

    If you have something specific in mind, just ask.

  • How Much Do Custom Shirts Cost? Pricing depends on a few factors, including:

    • garment style

    • number of shirts

    • number of ink colors

    • number of print locations

    Because every order is different, we provide custom quotes rather than publishing prices online. Once we know the details of your project we can provide a clear quote with no surprises.

  • How Do I Get Started? The easiest way is to request a quote through our website or give us a call.

    We’ll ask a few simple questions like:

    • what garment you want

    • how many pieces

    • what artwork you’d like printed

    From there we’ll guide you through the process and help bring your project to life.
