Minneapolis, MN USA -- The 34th International Gallery again presented hundreds upon hundreds of truly dazzling entries from around the globe to its International jurors October 10 & 11, 2008 at Minneapolis, Minnesota USA. The competition is produced annually by the IAPHC, The Graphic Professionals Resource Network in support of the IAPHC's guiding purpose to Educate, Promote, Inform and Connect (EPIC) its thousands of individual members and  the global graphic community.

In 2008, entries originating in Australia, Britain, China, Grenada, Hong Kong, India, Italy, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Poland, The Cayman Islands, Russia, Singapore and South Africa joined hundreds of other entrants from around North America in competing for honors including sponsored Best of the Best awards, which are named awards bearing the support of a world class roster of Internationally known graphic arts supplier firms.

More than 2 dozen international judges trained their expert eyes on these entries which had to pass three grueling rounds of judging to be eligible for the Best of the Best named awards.  The Best of the Best will be awarded in 2009. The International Gallery has solidified its premier position as a world-renowned graphic arts event. Perhaps resulting from graphic professionals embracing the global nature of the industry today, as well as intense interest in the Best of the Best Awards, the number of astonishing entries from accomplished graphics virtuosos has increased as individuals and companies vie for world-wide recognition.   Many winners seek to further leverage the impact of their award(s) by presenting their clients with prestigious duplicate award certificates as reminders of the award winning partnership of client and graphic professional.  For more info see:  www.iaphc.org
