AIGA KC Twenty

Don't forget to register for AIGA KC Twenty! I will for sure be going, and Jessica said she will be there. Let me know if you want a ride!

Also, KC Design Week is Feb 1-5. Check out the events here. Right now, I'm planning on attending the Kick-off, Branding Obama, possibly Pecha Kucha, and the events on Friday. That could change, depending on my work load for the week. Don't forget, all the events are FREE! And a great way to connect with people in the design community and celebrate Kansas City design.

Student ADDY Competition | Deadline Jan. 22nd

The AAF - Kansas City Student ADDY competition call for entries is attached. If your school is located near the Kansas City area, this is a great opportunity for students to be rewarded for creative efforts. Gold winning entries from the Kansas City competition will advance to the District ADDY competition and winners from there advance to the National ADDY competition.

The entry deadline is this Friday, January 22, 12 noon. Students must enter in the Student ADDY competition of the American Advertising Federation club closest to their school so if there is a competition closer than Kansas City, please submit to that. All entries should be entered in the online National ADDY software located at http://www.omnicontests.com/addy/omnicontests/logon.cfm. Students should click on I AM A STUDENT to get started.

If the glory of an award from a national advertising competition is not enough to drive your entries, how about a financial incentive? The AAF - Kansas City Foundation will award a $500.00 scholarship to the school of the Best of Show winner in the Kansas City Student ADDY competition. National Ad2 awards a $1,000.00 cash prize for the National Student ADDY Best of Show winner.

Please pass this information along to others in your program. Feel free to get in touch if you have any questions.
