Pittsburgh, PA, June 10, 2025 – Chosen from over 800 submissions, the Print and Graphics Scholarship Foundation (PGSF) is pleased to announce the winners of the 2024-2025 PGSF Design Contest.
Winning designs are used to promote the annual PGSF Scholarship Program that provides funds to students enrolled in either full-time and part-time secondary education in print and graphic communications.
The 2025 PGSF Poster and T-Shirt Design Contests required participants to choose one of three themes for their design: Print is Sustainable, Print is Authentic or Print is Innovative. Participants from high schools were reviewed separately from college participants and awards were given to each. Each student receives a check for $500 from PGSF for their winning design.
“We received hundreds of amazing designs from high school and college students in all three contests this school year,” said Dianne Bullas, Operations Director, PGSF. ”It is wonderful to see the talent available for future employers.”
