Gold Addy award for Still Photography by Leah Davis & Gillian Brown

The American Advertising Awards, run by the American Advertising Federation (AAF), is a national awards event recognizing students and professionals for their dedication to advertising through design.

The American Advertising Awards Student Division is the first of a three-tier, national competition, striving to recognize and reward students for their creative excellence in the art of advertising.

The American Advertising Awards consists of seven categories: sales and marketing, print advertising, out-of-home and ambient media, online/interactive, film, video and sound, cross platform, and elements of advertising (this includes copywriting, visuals, digital creative technology, etc.). Each category recognizes professional and student level work, distributing gold and silver awards accordingly. Out of the seven categories, Anderson University students submitted to six of them.

On March 9, 2024, the local chapter in the upstate of South Carolina, AAF Greenville, held their awards event, with sixteen Anderson University students in attendance along with various alumni. Not only were students in the BFA in Graphic Design program recognized for their outstanding work, but so were some of Anderson University’s Communication and Photography students.

Below is the list of Anderson University students who were awarded one or more ADDY’s along with their works. Thank you American Advertising Federation for recognizing our students!
