About the Classics Awards:
Since 1978, the Minnesota PRSA Classics Awards have recognized hundreds of organizations for excellence in public relations. The Classics are presented annually to public relations practitioners who, in the judgment of their peers, have successfully addressed a communications challenge with exemplary professional skill, creativity and resourcefulness.
The Classics Awards are divided into two categories: Elements and Programs. Elements Awards recognize outstanding individual components or tactics, while Programs awards honor the best overall public relations campaigns.
We’ll also be revealing the winners of the Student Classics Awards to showcase some of the best public relations work from college students, and honoring this year's Rising Star Award recipient, Mira LaNasa, and Padilla Award honoree, David (Dave) Neuger, APR.
