The Mission:
Assemble your team, collect available intel, craft a strategy, gather your greatest work,
deliver it to our judges before the deadline, and WIN an ADDY!
More than 380 entries were received from 50 different agencies and individuals. Savvy veterans, highly-decorated agencies, and the brightest up-and-comers our industry has to offer faced off in the ultimate creative competition. The entries were collected, and our panel of esteemed judges tabulated their results. Finally, we gathered to find out whether all of the creativity and talent, hard work, late nights, blood, cocktails and tears would yield the ultimate award.
Mission: Accomplished!

What our members say
about AAF-Houston
Winning a Gold ADDY at the American Advertising Awards was indeed one of the highest achievements my work has received. Knowing that it competed against some incredible photography locally, at the district level and then nationally, made it even more special. I was proud to help bring attention to Houston’s diverse creative community.
