About Us

Established by Quinn Murphy in 2015, Hamster Labs is a design and print shop specializing in screen printed posters. Over the years we’ve produced tens of thousands of prints across a wide range of projects—including gig posters, festival posters, limited edition fine art prints  and movie posters. Our work balances craftsmanship and creative collaboration.

We maintain strong relationships with local and national promoters, artist management companies, most venues in the Phoenix metro area, and local radio stations. These partnerships help us coordinate timely print runs, promotional campaigns, and limited releases that meet the needs of touring acts, festivals, galleries, and independent filmmakers.

In 2018, Hamster Labs earned a Phoenix New Times ‘Best of Phoenix’ award for best concert posters in 2018, and Quinn was chosen as a featured artist for AIGA’s Phoenix Design Week poster series in both 2019 and 2020.

More recently, Quinn started painting murals as a new creative outlet. In 2022, Quinn received another ‘Best of Phoenix’ award for best mural in Phoenix. A collaboration with friend and local artist, Jake Early. Again in 2025, they received an award for best mural by Phoenix Magazine.

Hamster Labs is based in Tempe, Arizona where we continue to expand and deepen our roster every day. We hold a high standard for our prints and work and hope it shows with all that we do.

Look, we know we’re not saving the world, but maybe with a little color on the walls we can all be a little happier about it.
