Testimonials

Gaby Wilson tackles the most challenging projects with aplomb, providing high quality publicity and issues management advice while securing excellent campaign results. Gaby is highly skilled and a delight to work with. She’s organised and thorough with exemplary media contacts. Gaby negotiated media contracts with globally-known artists and their managers, secured front page stories and major TV pieces, and an array of issues. Each was done with the same level of professionalism. Any arts festival, regardless of size, is in safe hands with the Press Society. (Former) Director of Media, Destination NSW – Vivid Sydney

I had the pleasure of working with Gaby when she was engaged by the National Portrait Gallery to publicise the exhibition, 20/20 – Celebrating Twenty Years with Twenty New Portrait Commissions. With nineteen artists and twenty sitters located throughout Australia and the US, it was a logistical challenge to ensure that each portrait was given timely and appropriate exposure. Gaby managed it with dogged determination, polish and style. As a result, the National Portrait Gallery received outstanding coverage. We would be thrilled to work with her again.
