My mother and I came in to have some custom work done. Phil was knowledgeable, patient , professional, and just overall pleasant to work with. Very talented at his craft and we were very happy with the final product. Not cheap by any stretch, but you get what you pay for, and in this case we certain did!!! Very satisfied customers who have a "go to" T-shirt guy! Will definitely use his services again! Thanks Phil! read more

This place is amazing!!  I was in a crunch to have some last minute business cards made for a portfolio show that was happening in less than two weeks. Phil the owner, put together the most beautiful cards I have ever seen. They were glossy double sided with six food photos cascading down one side, which I'm sure was a challenge to make sure they were clear, and big enough to see. The front of the card was absolutely gorgeous, with colorful butterfly pasta and Phil used his artsy talents to personalize the wording, by putting a little butterfly over the "i" . When Phil printed out a sample, I had an OMG!! moment for sure. I ordered 500 business cards and an extra 250 postcard size for presentation, which to my surprise was less than $100.00. The cards were ready ahead of schedule!  When I arrived to pick them up, I was floored at how beautiful they came out and to my surprise, Phil threw in an extra 500 cards as a graduation gift!!   I cannot emphasize enough how grateful I am to The Art Department. It was a pleasure doing business with Phil. He has wonderful ideas and creativity that will knock your socks off!! Needless to say, I received an "A" for the portfolio show and my business cards were taken by all that past my table. Horray!!  And my Executive Chef classified them as "stunning". And he seldom gives out compliments.   A big THANK YOU to The Art Department for making this purchase so effortless. read more

I had such an amazing experience here. My cousin passed away and our family wanted to get shirts done for the funeral services and within a few days, Phil was able to design the shirts and have them ready for us within a matter of days. The quality of the printing and shirt material were amazing. Our family is so thankful for Phil and his amazing employees! A few months ago, I referred a church friend to Phil and they were all so impressed with his quality of work as well. Definitely coming back in the future! read more

I created a design for our Family Reunion online using another online company's website, with specific lettering, graphics and special requests. but their pricing was high. I searched locally in the Southbay area and found several T-shirt printers online. Sent emails out and Phil responded. Sent him my designs and corresponded several times trying to finalize the design with family. It took several weeks before I got back to Phil. Finally made the order for 66 T-shirts with 5 different colors, and different names on the front. The darker shirts with white lettering instead of black. Discussing things with Phil on options for other shirt colors just in case. 10 days the order was ready and Phil even corresponded with me while he was on vacation insuring that no mistakes were made in the sizes and spelling. Note: The Art Dept has their own online design program, but did not find out until searching for local printing businesses. Phil had no problem with adapting to what I had. read more

Phil is THE BEST! He always goes above and beyond putting in extra time to edit and alter your design to make sure it's print-worthy. We've done two order with Phil, one for our climbing summer camp shirts and one for our competitive team shirts. Both came out perfect! The kids love their shirts and wear them all the time! But nothing beats the customer service they will provide! Thanks Phil for all your hard work on our team shirts! We are eternally indebted to you :) read more

Phil is awesome! Printed some logo t shirts for us and even rushed out two of them for a photo shoot we had coming up! They also printed a banner for us which exceeded my expectations! Excellent quality and very reasonable prices too! Definitely using them again, taking all of our promotional marketing printing to these guys! Killer! read more

This place is awesome! Fast, efficient, excellent pricing, and Phil is always ready to help! What a jewel of the South Bay we have in the Art Department! Phil helped us figure out how to make silk-screened Christmas cards.we could never have done it without him -- and he always had a sense of fun about everything! Thank you Phil! read more

Concerned folks who wanted it done right. If they weren't sure, they asked. No guesswork. More than met my expectations. And quick.

Phil is great at embroidery placement and coloration. We use him for all our corporate embroidery. And he does advertising items as well! read more

the owner, Phil, is always accomodating, honest and helpful. He tells it like it is and recommends products based on many years of working with his products and vendors. He is fast, but his products last. You can re-order a certain product without a setup fee within 12 months of your last order. You can find a guy who can do it for $8/shirt, but you know what? Your going to get a $1 value shirt that fades and peels within 3 months. Phil's stuff lasts years and that quality is worth any cost. read more

Had some chef coats embroidered and a couple of shirts with thermal transfers. I brought my designs to Phil and I originally wanted everything embroidered, but once he looked at my shirts he suggested not embroidering, due to the type of fabric. I was really happy with the job he did and pricing was very reasonable. read more

Phil is not only an expert at silkscreen,he also has a very artistic eye and talent. In addition he's a very pleasant guy !! Fred M.

There's nothing else to say except for that Phil Brown is the best in the business and I'll never have anything printed anywhere else. We can talk about my vision, bounce ideas and he brings them to life. Above everything else, Phil a great guy, honest, loves what he does, and is a straight shooter. Sometimes I feel like just popping in to say Hi and talk for a bit. Keep up the good work Art Department, and I'll keep printing hats! read more

We printed our team t-shirt here and it was a nightmare! Items that was show on their online website, they can't seem to locate the items or figure out which is which. In one case, the Art Department went ahead and made an executive decision and printed on the wrong items without consulting us. The order was placed, weeks have passed; multiple emails and phone calls to the store and no response! A month and a half later, finally got a hold of someone and they said, "Oh, yea, your order has been ready for a few weeks". So how come no one called to notified us? We have emailed, we have called and left voicemail, how are we suppose to find out an order is ready to pick up? Even though prices is slightly lower here, but the amount of trouble we went through to finalize the items were not worth the time. There is something broken with their process. read more

I contacted The Art Department for a simple quote on t-shirts for my baseball team. They were quick to respond to my email, but turned out to be very unhelpful. We wanted black ringer t's with a red trim, and they told me this type of shirt doesn't exist. I responded letting him know that our next choice was black-on-black ringer t's. I found a style that Gildan made that I liked, and they carry that brand, so I figured it wouldn't be a problem. He responded telling me that I'm basically asking for a black t-shirt, and I let him know that we were specifically looking for ringer t's. He responded by letting me know that he couldn't help me. My opinion ... if they are too lazy to look for a shirt ... I certainly wouldn't want them making my t-shirts. read more

I found The Art Department while looking for a local shirt vendor for screen printing and embroidery. Phil was extremely helpful in sourcing colors, shirt options, weights and fabrics. He was very patient in explaining the process and helped to expedite my job once I had all of the art elements in place. I truly appreciate his expertise in the industry and will use him as my resource for all of my jobs to come. read more

Honestly I can't say enough great things about this place, I am a mother/ business owner who waits to the last minute for everything but Phil always pulls off miracles. The first time I came to The Art Department was for some shirts(10 to be exact) for a competition we were competing in. The art work I brought to Phil was "Raw" to say the least but he was able to take my ideas and work his magic and they turned out great. Plus He was able to get the shirts to me to me with in a few days! We've also done business cards through them as well, of course I contacted Phil last minute with literally a screen shot of a mocked up version of what I wanted the cards to look like, from a website we won't mention. ( it rhymes with wistaprint ) and he was able to create a 10x better version and get the cards to me within a few days as well. Not only is the product superior but the customer service is what will keep me coming back. I'm so happy I found this place read more

I sent the business a message through yelp to inquire about getting a print done for Halloween. Phil, the owner, messaged me back within a day, offered to help and asked me to come in. I went by and even though he didn't think that he could help, he continued to try and help think of solutions or alternative ways of getting the desired effect. He even offered to reach out to another company on my behalf. In the end, I ended up going with my back up Halloween costume and did not have him make the dress but I greatly appreciate his willingness to help and get creative. That is the type of experience I remember and will always come back to and refer people to. Thank you, Phil! Talk soon. read more
