Women in Print Alliance, part of PRINTING United Alliance, North America’s comprehensive member-based printing and graphic arts association, has announced a series of initiatives designed to honor the contributions of women in the printing industry this March, and all year long. These programs aim to foster professional growth, facilitate meaningful connections, and advocate for increased diversity and inclusion within the sector.

Celebrating Women Educating and Inspiring Generations
“This year’s Women’s History Month theme – Women Educating & Inspiring Generations – is especially relevant to women in print,” says Lisbeth Lyons Black, director of Women in Print Alliance. “With four generations of women currently in the workforce, there are tremendous opportunities to learn from, and inspire, one another.

“The theme is also very much on point with the programs and services that Women in Print Alliance offers its members, not just in March, but all year long. From mentorship podcasts to professional development workshops to community-building events and advocating for expanded educational opportunities, we’re connecting women in print to honor the past while looking optimistically to the future.”

Expanded Membership Programming and Women in Print Benefits
In 2024, Women in Print Alliance launched a formalized paid membership program designed to provide even more enhanced benefits and greater accessibility for women at all stages of their careers.

Memberships are available for individuals and corporations, and each offers unique benefits designed to support members’ professional growth through a mix of virtual and in-person benefits, with programming focused on topics like business expertise, career development, executive leadership, and work-life balance. Additional perks include access to members-only webinars, workshops and book chats, recognition at select industry conferences, and more. And, student membership is free!

Even More Ways to Connect in 2025
In 2025, Women in Print Alliance will offer even more ways for women in the industry to connect, including regional meet-ups in select cities, and at the annual Women in Print Luncheon taking place in Orlando, Florida at PRINTING United Expo. This year’s luncheon will be held on October 23, featuring keynote speaker Joan Moon. And, in March, Women in Print Alliance will launch a comprehensive online Membership Directory to facilitate idea-sharing and learning exchanges across generations of women in the industry.
