Annual Student Awards

Since 1997, RGD Ontario has awarded more than $94,000 in cash prizes to graphic design students in Ontario in recognition of their outstanding achievements and to encourage excellence in the field of graphic design. Over the years, the program has grown from one $1,000 Award in 1997 to 16 $1,000 Awards in 2008, an awards ceremony and a feature on the winners in Applied Arts Magazine.
