Umber Publishing

GLOBALLY HIGHLIGHTING CREATIVE PERSPECTIVES THAT MATTER AND BUILDING A CONNECTED COMMUNITY.

Umber Publishing is an independent publishing house based in Oakland, CA. We leverage the power of print to build community among our readers and the culture of creatives they belong to. Our publications stimulate the curious, strengthen the imaginative and nurture the passionate. We paint people of color with the full palette of their experiences, allowing their brilliance to expand and redefine what it means to be Black and Brown.
