Horse Illustrated magazine has much to be proud of after receiving six American Horse Publications (AHP) Equine Media Awards during the 2024 AHP “Cowboy Up Lone Star Seminar” Conference on Saturday, May 17, 2025, in Dallas, Texas. Awards included a first place in the General Excellence category.

“Horse Illustrated is deeply honored to receive these awards, especially first place in the General Excellence category,” said Editor in Chief Holly Caccamise. “Every year we work hard to bring our readers engaging content, and our wonderful stable of freelance writers and photographers are the ones who make this possible. I want to give them a special thanks and recognize all of their hard work over the past year. In addition, getting to learn from the panels that AHP puts together for the conference and share ideas with our peers is always a special annual high point that gives us inspiration to make even better media over the year until the next conference.”
