2003 GARDEN GLOBE AWARDS
GARDEN WRITERS ASSOCIATION
|
For the past 20 years, the GWA has conducted an annual awards program for talent and products published or aired in the field of garden communications. The original purpose of the program was to provide recognition for the vast talents of the GWA membership in the area of writing, photography, graphic design, illustration and electronic media such as radio, television and Internet programming. It is a means of showcasing the many exceptional works created and/or published every year.
From 331 initial awards entries, 57 works were recognized for individual or collective achievement. Working in category teams (writing, photography, etc.), judges reviewed every entry based upon an objective point system evaluating the accuracy of information, the ability to communicate, the content and organization and the style and originality. Entries placing in the top 10% of this non-competitive scoring receive the Garden Globe Award of Achievement and become semi-finalists for the Award of the Year.
The second day of judging becomes competitive. From the 57 Award of Achievement recipients, the judges, as a group, subjectively evaluate talent (writing, photography, on-air personality, etc.) and product (book, magazine, calendar, etc.) entries for “Best Talent” and "Best Product" awards. Each best of talent or product award becomes a finalist for the Award of the Year.
Awards Chair Michael MacCaskey is pleased to announce the following recipients of the 2003 Garden Globe Award of Achievement and the Garden Globe Awards for Best Talent and Product. The Garden Globe Award of the Year recipient will be announced at the Annual Awards Banquet to be held August 18, 2003, at the 55th Annual GWA Symposium in Chicago
