On behalf of the AAF District 14 Board of Directors, we’d like to sincerely congratulate the ADDY winners from across the region!

Every year our judges receive the best entries that place Gold at the local level of the American Advertising Award competition –  from Reno, Sacramento, Fresno, Silicon Valley, and San Francisco. District judging is the second leg of the competition, with the national part being the last.

Those of you who placed Silver or Gold at the District level should be incredibly proud of your achievements as the District level is much more challenging to judge than the local, as these entries are truly the creme of the crop! After the judging was completed, gold winners were automatically forwarded to AAF National for the final part of the competition (good luck!).

Below are the Gold & Silver winners for this year’s competition. Congratulations to everyone! Certificates are in process, and if you would like to upgrade to a trophy, you can do so here.

If you have any questions, please reach out to AAF District 14 Governor, Kurt Thigpen.
