Calendar of Events

POSTPONED: Graphics Night 2020

March 13, 2020 , Disneyland Hotel

In consultation with the Board of Directors of the PIASC, we have made the decision to postpone Graphics Night from Friday, May 1, to a later date. We are currently working with the Disneyland Hotel to secure a new date and will advise the membership when we have more information. The overall mission of PIASC is to serve the interests of its membership. Given the current worldwide situation, we believe that it is prudent to take this action in order to protect our community.

We have received over 260 entries to the Print Excellence Awards competition. Currently, we are planning to move forward with judging the entries with a goal of announcing winners at Graphics Night. Award winners will be submitted for Premier Print Awards consideration based on the timelines provided by PIA.

We are working to be flexible and adapt to circumstances as they present themselves. As we have seen, carefully laid plans have been upended by the twists and turns of world and national events. We resolve to continue to update the membership with our plans and any changes that may be required. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any questions that you might have.
