Nyack's Woman-Owned Print Studio Thinks Beyond the T-Shirt

CXM Graphics Studio handles everything from vehicle lettering to eco-friendly embroidered apparel, all from a downtown Nyack storefront run by women who know local.

There's a quiet category of business that every community depends on but rarely talks about: the shop that makes the banner for the school fundraiser, the lettering on the side of the plumber's van, the hoodies for the rec league team. In Nyack, that shop is CXM Graphics Studio, tucked into downtown and doing a lot more than most people realize.

The studio describes itself as wide format, which means they're set up to print large — window graphics, vehicle lettering, exhibition displays. But the work also scales down to the kind of apparel and accessory printing that a small team or a local organization actually needs. What's worth noting is how they're doing the apparel side: water-based, eco-friendly ink technology, which produces cleaner output and less environmental load than traditional plastisol printing. For anyone sourcing branded gear with an eye toward sustainability, that's a real differentiator, not just a tagline.

Perhaps the most practical thing CXM offers — and the one most overlooked — is their online store model for teams, schools, fire departments, and other organizations. The idea is straightforward: they build a storefront for your group, members order what they want, and the organization doesn't have to front any inventory costs. For a booster club treasurer or a PTA chair who's been burned by pre-ordering too many medium sweatshirts, this is a genuinely useful setup.

The studio is woman-owned and operated, and they're explicit about wanting to collaborate with other local businesses. That's not incidental — Nyack has a dense enough concentration of small independent shops, restaurants, and arts organizations that a local print partner willing to work creatively is a real asset to the downtown ecosystem. If you've been handling your organization's branded merchandise through an impersonal online platform, it might be worth a conversation with someone a few blocks away who actually knows the community.
