I’d like to spend a couple minutes talking about something that’s been on my mind a lot recently. It’s something we deal with a lot here at Trust, and it’s something I’ve seen a lot of people in our industry completely ignore: stealing artwork…

2017 Year in Review
Posted December 21st, 2017 by Jesse MacKenzie
It’s that time of year where we look back on 2017, celebrate what happened, and look to the new year expecting big things.

We had the awesome opportunity to participate in the “Crafting from the Collection” event at the Amon Carter Museum. Jeremy, Hannah, and Jesse brought our live printing setup and demonstrated a short presentation on Trust and how screen printing works. We spent a couple hours printing and answering questions, and then everyone went home with something they created themselves. It truly was a great experience and was awesome to see everyone get so excited about something we do every day!

It’s a situation we’re very familiar with: You want to get shirts for your office team, but how many do you order?

Trust got to be a part of a couple really awesome conferences this month. We’ve found a lot of value in conferences, getting out of the shop really helps with self evaluation and working on the business instead of in the business…
