PRSA 2021 Image Awards

The Central California Image Awards honor works of distinction in the practice of public relations by Central Valley professionals working in public relations, communications, marketing and advertising. Enter your best work from last year for an opportunity to earn recognition, raise your industry profile, enhance your brand recognition, celebrate your team's accomplishments, grow your business and become part of public relations history.

​

Awards are judged by public relations professionals from a PRSA chapter in another state. All entries are judged according to criteria set for that category and not against other entries. The awards cover program and project awards, as well as special awards including Executive of the Year, Professional of the Year and Rookie of the Year.
