On July 8, 2008, the premier issue of Suffolk Arts+Sciences received a 2008 APEX Award for Publication Excellence.

The 20^th annual APEX Awards program recognizes excellence in publications work by professional communicators. APEX Awards are based on excellence in graphic design, editorial content and the ability to achieve overall communications excellence.

In the 2008 awards competition, 4,479 entries were evaluated, with 837 entries in the Magazines & Journals category. Suffolk Arts+Sciences magazine was one of 11 recipients of the APEX Award of Excellence in the New Magazines & Journals category.

Additional winners in this category include Time Inc. Content Solutions in NYC, John Wiley & Sons, Inc. in San Francisco, and the Pohly Company in Boston.

“Each year, the quality of entries increases,” the judges wrote. “Overall, this year’s entries displayed an extraordinary level of quality. The APEX judges saw only the most promising publications that professional communicators could enter. Many of the award-winning entries in this and earlier APEX competitions are classic examples of good ideas, imaginatively executed, despite limitations due to tight budgets, limited resources and small staff.”
