The Art Directors Club, founded in New York in 1920, is a self-funding, not-for-profit membership organization whose mission is to connect, provoke and elevate creative, visual communications professionals around the world. Throughout the year the Art Directors Club produces a wide range of programs like the ADC Hall of Fame, GrandMasters and Young Guns, to recognize the industry’s best talent. ADC provides a forum for creatives through exhibitions and conferences in Advertising, Design, and Interactive Media to explore the direction of these rapidly converging industries. It promotes creative talent with scholarships, professional and student portfolio reviews and high school workshops. These programs all support the ADC mission to inspire and celebrate creative excellence.
