Local Only Categories

The ADDY® Awards is a prestigious, three-tier advertising creative competition.  Entries are first judged at the local level (AAF Central Georgia).  Winning entries are judged again at the District level (AAF District 7).  Entries winning at the District level go on to compete at the National level.  Winning at any level is a huge honor.

Local Only Categories celebrate the finer points of our craft in our own market. All local only entries can neither be entered in any other AAF Award show, regardless if it is in a different category, nor be entered in any other category in this show.  These local-only category entries are not eligible for Best of Show, and ARE NOT ELIGIBLE to roll up to the District or National Level.  If you have questions about the AAF Central Georgia Local Only ADDY® categories, please contact info@aafcentralgeorgia.org.
