PICA July Awards registrations open

The Australian industry is set to celebrate the Printing Industry Creativity Awards (PICA), with registrations now open for a series of glittering presentation evenings planned for state capitals during July.

"After the Awards were presented virtually last year, due to Covid restrictions, the events will provide a much-anticipated opportunity to gather as an industry, reconnect, and celebrate the achievement of excellence," says Walter Kuhn, president of the Print & Visual Communications Association (PVCA), which presents the PICAs each year.

“We are excited to be able to get together to celebrate the Awards this year, after what has been one of the most challenging periods in the history of our industry."

“The evenings will be a real celebration of the ability of print service providers to survive, thrive and adapt in the face of adversity – and, through it all, not only to maintain the outstanding levels of quality, for which our local industry is renowned but, according to our judges, to push standards even higher.

“As well as the presentations themselves, where attendees will learn who has achieved the ultimate Gold Medal awards in the 15 print categories, the cocktail presentations will provide a great opportunity to catch up with industry friends and colleagues over drinks, canapes and live entertainment.”

The PICA presentations will be at:

SA/NT on Friday 2 July at the National Wine Centre of Australia
Victoria on Friday 9 July at the Marriott Hotel Docklands
NSW on Friday 16 July at Ovolo, Woolloomooloo
Queensland on Friday 23 July at the Tattersalls Club in Brisbane
Perth on Saturday 31 July, at the Crown
