Awards Background

Sponsored by the Maryland Chapter of the Public Relations Society of America (PRSA), the Best in Maryland Awards are presented each year to public relations practitioners who, in the judgment of their peers, have successfully addressed a communications challenge with exemplary professional skill, creativity and resourcefulness. More than 30 categories are offered.

PRSA Maryland models the Best in Maryland Awards after the PRSA Silver and Bronze Anvil Awards of the national organization. The awards competition is open to all public relations, communications and marketing professionals who work in Maryland or who wish to enter projects completed in Maryland or on behalf of a Maryland-based client. The categories provide an opportunity to showcase outstanding programs as well as single piece components.
