Recognizing excellence in advertising is one of AAF's primary objectives. Through the ADDY Awards Competition, AAF fulfills its commitment to cultivate the highest standards of advertising.
Awards honor the best in American advertising from across the country.
An entrant must first win an award in one of 200 local competitions sponsored by AAF advertising clubs and federations, then be selected in one of 14 district competitions before reaching the national level. Their work is significant in that it has not only received national honors, but it also has been recognized at the local and regional levels as well. Awards will take place June 12 in Cleveland, Ohio, at the AAF's American Advertising Conference . Awards Gala will follow at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. This year's judges are 10 of the top creatives representing major American media markets.
