Welcome to AAF

The American Advertising Federation is dedicated to protecting advertising at all levels of government and connecting an entire network of AAF chapters to make our industry strong. We’ve been bringing advertisers, agencies, the media and their service providers together to protect and promote the advertising industry for over 100 years.

Welcome to the club.

On behalf of myself, and the Board of Directors, we are so excited to have you join us, as your involvement and membership is so important to us, this organization and our community. We promise you to do our best to stay relevant, inspirational and educational. We ask you to keep communication open with us on what you want to see from this organization or if we, in any way, do not meet your expectations. Here are a few things you can look forward to.

Don’t miss a thing

We are dedicated to providing educational and inspiring events for all members.

Check out aafcos.com for upcoming events.

Our luncheon series will continue with some of the hottest speakers in the country. Our speaker series is always a hit, with lunch served at favorite local locations and intriguing topics for all professions. Keep an eye out for upcoming dates.

AAFter Hours panels are cocktail hour events that feature hors d’oeurves and cocktails for networking along with a panel of specialized professionals on chosen subjects. These events always pack the house and are light on the wallet.

The American Advertising Awards is our largest event every year. The American Advertising Awards, formerly the ADDYs, is the industry’s largest creative competition, and the only local competition that is able to get your work awarded at the national level. The mission of the American Advertising Awards competition is to recognize and reward excellence in the art of advertising. As a member, you receive a steep discounted rate on entries. We will also continue our own local Advertising Icon Awards where we celebrate and recognize spectacular talent in our market.

Be in the Know

There are several ways to get involved in our network. Inquire about joining a committee to get involved in the local advertising community or be a part of our Public Service Project. We are always on the look out for motivated and talented professionals to help us stay on track of our goals for our members and community. Tune in to upcoming events, exchange ideas and find inspirational tips posted each day on our Facebook and Twitter. Make sure you are signed up for our newsletter where we send out a monthly member-only update as well as event reminders.

AAF COS has a place for anyone to get involved and make a difference, and we hope to get you excited about this organization as well. We each play a role in the success of our industry. We look forward to the next year with you as a member.
