Westbrook Licensing Group was founded in 1990 on a simple notion: Make Beautiful Art Accessible.
Over its thirty-six year history, Westbrook Licensing Group has worked with hundreds of artists and created too many pieces of art to count … but we can if you need us to. From our first collection of a handful of images and a homemade trade show booth to today, where we release hundreds of images a month to customers across the globe, we are proud to be one of the longest-standing art publishers in North America.
Westbrook Licensing Group still calls beautiful Woodstock, Vermont, home. From our hometown studio we work with top-selling artists, creators and designers. Our art collections are sold as prints and wall decor globally and licensed onto beautiful home decor products including dinnerware, fabric, rugs, kitchenware, stationery and more. If you ask us what we do we will tell you that we simply “make the world more beautiful with art.”
In 2022, the company founders, the Chesters, decided to retire and pursue their bucket lists. After looking for the best options that would keep the company running with the same values and commitment to staff, artists and customers, Westbrook Licensing Group was purchased by local Vermonter, and company Chief Operating Officer, Shawn Harned.
Don’t worry. If you also love us for our devotion to chocolate, we can guarantee you that we (and Shawn) are still very pro chocolate.
As we embark on this new chapter, we are staying true to our values of creativity, respect and hard work and continue to do business by the golden rule: treating artists, customers, suppliers, and each other the way we want to be treated.
