Entering the American Advertising Awards supports the entire advertising community. The proceeds from the competition help fund AAF’s initiatives, including public service programs, internships, advocacy efforts, advertising education, and consumer awareness. By participating, you’re not only putting your best work forward but also contributing to the growth and future of the industry.
Entries are evaluated by a panel of industry experts who assess all creative dimensions of each submission. A Gold ADDY represents the highest level of creative excellence in the category and is considered superior to all other entries. Silver ADDYs are awarded to entries that are outstanding and worthy of recognition. The number of awards in each category is at the judges’ discretion and is based on the overall quality of work submitted.
The American Advertising Awards also includes a Student Division, providing a platform for the next generation of creative talent to showcase their work. This unique program is designed specifically for college students, allowing them to compete at the local level with the possibility of advancing to regional and national judging. Eligible students must be enrolled full- or part-time in an accredited U.S. educational institution and not employed in the advertising industry, though student interns are welcome to participate.
Whether you are a seasoned professional or an aspiring student, the American Advertising Awards is your chance to gain recognition for your creative work. Join AAF Austin in celebrating the art of advertising by entering your best work and take your place among the industry’s elite.
