OMAHA, Neb. (Feb. 28, 2018) The 2018 American Advertising Awards (lovingly called the ADDYs here in town) had its annual banquet with a masquerade theme. Attendees dressed in their finery, including masks, which included anything from the simple to the extravagant. Sponsored by the American Advertising Federation, students entered original creative projects into competitive categories which were judged by professionals in the field. The competition is tiered, with state winners advancing to one of 15 district competitions, and district winners advancing to the national level.
The Creative Center is proud to celebrate seven students who won a total of eight awards at this year’s ADDYs.
