Enrique Salazar was one of the founding members of the society and the national representative for the BC chapter for two years. He was a partner in Salazar Graphics, and taught graphic design at Capilano College until his death in June of 1985. Metropolitan Fine Printers is the founding sponsor of this event.

   Here’s a note I got from Bart Sciana, the 1st place 4-year winner (broadcast channel design) with links to his work, for future reference. I’d like to do a showcase of the awardwinning work online - whenever I get a chance, which won’t be for a while!

   “Dear Sigrid,
    
   Thanks for the great evening last night ! Jim Coudal’s talk was really inspiring. I just wanted to submit hi-res still images of my project just in case the work would be published anywhere (as I only submitted a low res DVD of a project not suitable for publishing)
