Graphis Poster Annual Gives Gold to 2009 ADDY Poster

Thom Gehring and Russel Evan Pryor reached the pinnacle of graphic design recognition: a Gold Graphis award in the 2011 Poster Annual. Oddly, the poster won only Bronze in the Austin ADDYs. Tough show, that. To view the 2009 ADDY Winners Book pdf click here.

 

 

 

 


Mark your calendars for July 15—The Advertising Party of the Year. Join us at The Highball on South Lamar as we celebrate our kick-ass creatives who won Best of Show and led regional competition with 59 AAF District 10 ADDYs, then brought home a record 21 national ADDYs this summer. And helped Austin win Ad Club of the Year from the 50,000 member American Advertising Federation. We’re jazzed.
