PPFA Chapter PRINT and OPEN Framing Competition
Each year, PPFA Chapters hold their annual Chapter PRINT (entrants frame the same piece) and OPEN (entrants frame an item of the framer's choice) Competitions. Preservation materials and practices for custom framing are encouraged and scored. To find out when your chapter is holding their local Framing Competitions, please contact your chapter president or check out the calendar of events.
If you are not located within one of the 26 PPFA Chapters, you may compete in the "Mailbox" Chapter PRINT and OPEN Framing Competition. Mailbox entries will be judged at PPFA Headquarters in January 2011. Get your copy of "Fall Leaf/Blue Sky", the 2010-2011 PRINT Competition piece, by returning the order form to PPFA Headquarters. Complete and return the Mailbox PRINT entry form or Mailbox OPEN entry form to compete in the Mailbox Chapter Framing Competition.

The PPFA International PRINT and OPEN Framing Competition will be held during the PPFA Annual Conference in Las Vegas, Nevada, Sept. 8-10, 2011. First, second, third, and honorable mention winners from each of the chapters' competitions are eligible to advance to the International Competition.
