Kagy/Prust Life Achievement Award

The Kagy/Prust Life Achievement Award is granted by the Graphic Communication Education Association for significant contributions to graphic arts education and the graphic arts industry. It is dedicated in the memory of the man who served and influenced the lives of the thousands of people that he came in contact with during his long and illustrious career as a graphic arts educator. Fred Kagy has provided us with a role model that would be impossible to replicate, but is worthy of emulating. This is the highest honor awarded to one of our members by GCEA.
