Ai Atlanta to Celebrate Student Finalists at the 2018 Atlanta ADDY's Award Gala

The American Advertising Awards, formerly the ADDYs, is the advertising industry's largest and most representative competition, attracting over 40,000 entries every year in local AAF Club (Ad Club) competitions. The mission of the American Advertising Awards competition is to recognize and reward the creative spirit of excellence in the art of advertising.

This year, eight student entries from The Art Institute of Atlanta have been selected as Finalists for the Atlanta market.  These individuals, along with faculty and staff, will attend the 2018 ADDY’s Award Gala on Thursday, February 22 at the Fox Theatre to see who walks away a winner and the chance to compete on a national scale.
