The Inland Northwest American Advertising Awards Competition is the first level of a three-tiered national competition conducted annually by the American Advertising Federation (AAF).

Gold and Silver awards may be awarded in each category of competition at the discretion of the judges. All local winners are forward to the District XI American Advertising Awards Competition.
Here's a sneak peak of this year's winners
Helveticahaus was formed not only to showcase the most revered font in the world,
but also - and this is the really important thing - to inspire design students in the
inland northwest.
What that means is that all Hh profits will go toward providing financial support for those
earning graphic design degrees at Spokane Falls Community College - alma mater of Hh founders
CK and Linda Anderson.

VIEW PORTFOLIOThe TMR Scholarship is a $1,000 scholarship that was created in memory of Toni M. Robideaux, one of AAF Spokane's most influential leaders. Its goal is to recognize and reward student achievement and excellence in the arts. All funds are generated by AAF Spokane and go directly to qualifying students.
The Lawton Design Scholarship provides an opportunity for students to showcase their effort to the print, marketing, and design community of Spokane. To enter the contest, students create a series of postcards to highlight a "Sip and Connect" monthly event that Lawton hosts for clients and community members. The students' finished pieces will feature three postcard invitations that use different font pairing to create a balanced design. In addition to each of the three postcards, students will create a complimentary Instagram post.
The American Advertising Awards is the advertising industry's largest and most representative competition, attracting nearly 30,000 entries every year in local AAF Ad Club competitions. The mission of the American Advertising Awards is to recognize and reward the creative spirit of excellence in the art of advertising.
