imPRESS

Each year, print industry professionals gather to celebrate the industry and the accomplishments of those in it. Part of the annual imPRESS event is honoring the winners of PIAG's Print Excellence Competition, which recognizes and rewards printing, finishing, and design companies who combine fine craftsmanship, creativity, and cutting-edge technology in order to produce outstanding finished products.

In addition, we also recognize the recipient of the Benjamin Franklin Award, which honors an individual who has been a long-term major contributor to Georgia's graphic arts industry.

Gather with your peers, make new friends, and celebrate the outstanding pieces that have been produced in Georgia at this year’s PIAG imPRESS Celebration of Print + Showcase on August 10 at the Hyatt Regency at Villa Christina.

View photos and winners from last year's event.
