The Americas Printing Association Network (APAN) is proud to announce the presentation of the 2023 Americas Print Awards (APA’s), a national competition that recognizes the absolute finest in printing across the United States. 

Americas Printing Association Network submitted their top winning entries from their regional competitions into the APA’s. Those pieces went head-to-head in this national competition. Judging for the 2023 Americas Print Awards was held in August at Printing Industries Association (PIA), Los Angeles, CA. Eighteen entries were selected as the best of the US. They will be announced live on YouTube (youtube.com/americasprintawards) on October 24, 2023.

The Best of Show Award showcases the pinnacle of printing across America, rewarding the very best work of just one of APAN’s more than 5,000 members.
