This is my club. I’ve developed lifelong relationships with some the finest writers, strategists and creatives in the US through AAF-Houston.
BIG thinkers. BOLD ideas. DISRUPTIVE, yet SMART. RELENTLESS, yet THOUGHTFUL.
THIS is the new advertising industry in Houston. AAF-Houston is home to the city’s best marketers, creatives, communicators, and storytellers. Need more benefits?
Join our crew. Get informed. Help craft the future of our industry.
Bob Culpepper, we will miss your spirit and your love of our industry. We will miss the talents you shared with The American Advertising Federation Houston. You were our board President in 1990, a Spirit of Houston recipient in 1995, a Silver Medal recipient in 2008, an Honorary Life Member, and Living Legend.
You also found time to share your knowledge with our future industry leaders as a Professor of Advertising at The University of Houston.
Bob Culpepper DID follow his bliss, and our advertising community is better because of that.
From your friends at AAF-Houston, thank you.
We at AAF-Houston recognize many things
We recognize that our 109-year-old organization was built by advertising professionals from all walks of life.
We recognize that Houston represents the best example of how diversity and inclusion can work.
We recognize that diversity and inclusion mean nothing without participation and representation.
We recognize that our success, as a club and as a nation, is dependent on the opportunities we provide.
It is our professional, civic, and human duty to stand against the racism that has played a role in prohibiting our Black communities from having equal opportunities, privileges, and rights. Along with our national organization, AAF-Houston vows to uphold our mission of being the “Unifying Voice for Advertising” by creating platforms for education and conversation that will lead to improved communication, increased awareness, and a new level of understanding and respect for all communities of color and under-represented communities.
At AAF-Houston, we are not lost in the controversy of now, we can see the horizon and the road that will take us there.
Please join us on our journey.
