COVID-19 Award Changes
The American Advertising Awards competition rules, categories and entry procedures for 2021-2022 have been modified to allow for virtual judging.
This year all entries WILL NOT require a physical submission as part of the entry process. All entries can be handled online in the OpenWater software. This means the judges will not require a physical printout or physical sample of the entry to judge.
In all categories where a physical printout is typically needed, entrants are allowed to upload a written description, video, photography and/or any digital examples of the entry to help with judging.
With this in mind, there WILL NOT be a physical entry drop-off location this year. If a check needs to be mailed please send it to, 5970 Fairview Rd. Suite 610, Charlotte, NC 28210 (Attn: AAF Charlotte).
