Helena Miller of PrintSA is the winner of the 'Print is Alive' competition run by Printing Industries’ Apprenticeship Advisor and Mentoring Program - a prize that sees her travel to PacPrint in Melbourne this week.
Her prize sees her travel to Melbourne for PacPrint and to attend the National Print Awards dinner on Friday 24 May.
Helena created a desk calendar based on the Print is Alive theme. The competition was run to encourage apprentices to become advocates for the industry and to use their talents to communicate the theme via any of a variety of mediums.
The prize-winning entry will be on display at the Printing Industries stand (1618) during PacPrint
