This year’s Bell Ringer Awards ceremony will take place June 5, 2019, at The
Royal Sonesta in Cambridge. The gala will be the PR Club’s first
following a major brand refresh and renaming as the former Publicity
Club of New England. To mark this exciting new chapter for the oldest
organization for New England-based communication professionals, this
year’s awards will recognize game-changing campaigns (and the innovators
behind them) through videos and visual representations. The ceremony
will illustrate how the best-of-the-best are keeping up with today’s
rapidly changing industry.

There are nearly
50 categories, showcasing the breadth of capabilities among New
England PR professionals and their teams. In addition to new and updated
categories, this year’s Bell Ringers will feature a focus on celebrating
diversity, inclusion, and culture among PR professionals and their
agencies. This year’s submissions welcome organizations and agencies to
show how they are advancing, celebrating, and prioritizing diversity and
inclusion.

Bell Ringer Awards judges will combine their collective experiences and
successes from a wide range of communication leadership roles and
industries within agencies, media organizations, corporations and
nonprofits to select award honorees.

“This event truly shows how ‘the whole is greater than the sum of its
parts’ by applauding the teamwork and long hours that go into generating
success,” said Todd Graff, president of PR Club and senior vice
president, public relations for CTP Boston. “These awards are our way of
recognizing the hard work we know goes into creating and executing
smart, energetic, and memorable campaigns that deliver results. We look
forward to reviewing this year’s submissions and seeing the best of New
England PR professionals.”
