Janet / Monday, 3 June 2024 / Categories: Latest News, Associations Entries closing this Friday for Currie Group 2024 Sign & Graphics Awards Entries in the Currie Group 2024 Sign & Graphics Awards close this Friday. The Awards, held every two years, recognise excellence across all areas of the sign, display, and graphics sector and are widely regarded as the pinnacle of achievement for industry businesses. Entries from across the industry are coming in for a wide range of project categories, but for those who have not submitted, time is ticking, says ASGA President Mick Harrold. “A month sounds like a long time, but the days can slip away fast, so I’d encourage anyone who has a project they consider worthy of an award to go online to signs.org.au and step through the simple, online entry process,” he says. “Before you jump online, identify the jobs which represent your best work, and then gather all the information you can about each, including photos of the finished work and information about its production,” Harrold explains. “Once you’ve registered online and provided your company details, you’ll be prompted to provide as much information as you can about the job, how it was produced and delivered, and anything else which our judges may need to know to properly consider it for an Award. “You should also make sure you have some good quality images that show the quality of the work, its impact when used or installed, and the innovative qualities which set it apart from similar projects.” The association encourages business owners to gather the required information now rather than leave it to the last minute. “As a business owner, I know how easy it is to get caught up in the day-to-day and set aside things like Awards entries,” Harrold acknowledges. “However, I also know what a positive impact it can have on your team morale, on your business marketing, and on the wider industry to have your best work showcased in this way, so I’d encourage business owners to consider entering.” Categories cover almost all aspects of the wider sign and graphics sector, with all categories explained in detail in the 2024 Award Categories document, downloadable from the website. Harrold says that entrants should also familiarise themselves with the 2024 Award Terms & Conditions to ensure the work entered is compliant. The Currie Group 2024 Sign & Graphics Awards will be awarded at a Gala Presentation Dinner at Daltone House in Hyde Park, Sydney, on Friday, 6 September. To be eligible for entry, projects must be completed between Tuesday, 8 March 2022 and Friday, 31 May 2024 and must be received by the deadline of 5 pm on Friday, 7 June 2024.
