The New York Chapter of the Public Relations Society of America has opened entries for the 2019 Big Apple Awards, which will be presented June 17 at the Mandarin Oriental near Columbus Circle in Manhattan.
Now in its 32nd year, the Big Apple Awards honor excellence in the industry and outstanding campaigns. The theme this year is “Changing the Landscape of Communications”: examining how communications is changing, and what those changes mean to practitioners.
The awards are open to agencies, in-house teams, freelancers, nonprofit organizations, and government agencies, both PRSA-NY members and non-members, across the Tri-State region.
The Chapter will also recognize the accomplishments and talents of younger professionals, showcased in its annual 15 Under 35 Awards, which are nominated separately but will be recognized at the same event. Nominees can learn more and enter at www.prsany.org.
