It Pays to be a Member
The price for non-members is considerably more expensive than for AAF members. So, if you join today, you’ll not only save, but you’ll support the local chapter and gain all of the other benefits of membership. Once you're a member, you'll receive a reminder to renew your membership 90 days before your membership expires.
We Are Not Accepting Physical Entries
The National AAF organization will be conducting judging remotely this year, as will our local chapter. Please do not plan to submit physical entries to this year's competition.
If you are submitting an inherently physical entry (e.g. a sales kit, a mailing or a display), in addition to submitting a full PDF of the entire piece, consider taking photographs or video that showcase the production quality and construction of your entry.
