1977–2027 Celebrating 50 years of Canadian storytelling

Celebrating 50 years of Canadian storytelling.

Since 1977, the National Media Awards Foundation (NMAF) has supported Canada’s magazine and digital publishing communities.

Our awards celebrate exceptional journalism and visual storytelling, while our professional development programs, career resources and networking opportunities help emerging and established media professionals build skills and connections. We also raise the profile of Canadian publishing, bringing outstanding work to wider audiences.
