One of WPA’s primary objectives of the MAGGIES is to promote the pursuit of excellence among publishing and media professionals. The tools, training, and information WPA provides are designed to improve skills, foster creativity, and inspire the publishing community to do their best work.
WPA believes recognition is the best way to honor achievement. For more than 60 years, WPA has bestowed awards of excellence to deserving individuals and companies whose work is deemed “The Best in the West” in a wide variety of publishing categories.
The Annual MAGGIE Awards Banquet is the most prestigious publishing event in the West. Publishing professionals from 24 states gather to honor excellence in print and electronic publishing in over 100 editorial, design, promotional and event categories.
