Due to ongoing concerns about COVID-19, the American Advertising Awards competition rules, categories and entry procedures for 2022-2023 have been modified to allow for the possibility of remote online judging.
In some categories, entrants are allowed and/or required to upload additional digital examples of an entry. This is intended to provide more appropriate content for the judges, should a virtual judging solution be necessary. For most categories, there has been no change from prior competition years.
Please carefully follow all online submission guidelines provided within the entry system, in order to ensure that your work is properly represented during all three tiers of the American Advertising Awards competition.

Stop! Read this very important information.
· AdFed West Michigan will NOT have a drop-off day in 2023.
· All work is to be submitted online and will be judged online. Make your images the best they can be. If you feel that an image isn’t the best representation of your work, you may submit a 50-word explanation.
· We are planning a live party/show in mid-February. If your work is awarded an ADDY, you will be asked to submit the actual, physical piece for the show. (More on that later.)
· We are only accepting payments through the submission website. No checks, no cash. (If you are representing a corporation and absolutely must pay with a check, contact Pamela Patton, pam@paragraphwriting.com.)
· Entries must submitted online through Friday, January 20, 2023.
More fun stuff:
