For the first time, the complete international jury will meet together in New York City to select One Show Pencils during the actual One Show Festival Week. Winners will be announced at the One Show ceremony on May 7, 2008 at Jazz at Lincoln Center.

There will be two preliminary judging sessions in Hawaii and the Dominican Republic prior to the jury selecting the Pencil winners.

“Being selected to be a One Show judge is a career-defining honor, as is winning a One Show Gold Pencil,” said Mary Warlick, Chief Executive Officer of The One Club. “The One Club has very high standards to uphold, so when we invite someone to identify the best creative work in the world, you can rest assured that person is equally capable of creating it.”
