About

IMG-4290.jpg
 

Cow House Press grew out of a shared love of warm paper fresh from the printer, smudged ink, and wonky staples. We are an indie publisher based in Pittsburgh making comics, zines, books, and lots of cow puns.

We support emerging voices and a diverse range of creators from marginalized backgrounds. Our books are all-ages because young readers deserve complex stories that represent their multitudes in all it’s strange, ugly, funny, weird glory.

CHP donates copies of all our books to queer spaces, youth programs, prison libraries, and low-income schools. We have a book-matching and pay-what-you-can program for self-organizers, community spaces, and activist groups.

Cow House Creators: Gabi Mendez, HP Lehkonen, Nathaniel Osollo, Bitmap Prager, Emily Riesbeck.
Cow House Crew: Sheika Lugtu, Jenna Kang
