Art Directors Club Awards Gala ~ Wednesday, May 19th
The Art Directors Club is celebrating their 89th Annual Awards winners with a presentation at the SVA Theater that includes the real men still crafting the art of advertising who inspire intrigue on MAD MEN — George Louis, Paul LaVoie, Bill Oberlander, Robert Greenberg, Richard Wilde and Doug Jaeger — all of whom served as President of The ADC.
Creative professionals in advertising, design and communication will celebrate and be celebrated – first with an awards presentation, and then with a toast and a bang. The ADC invites all ticket-holders to an after-party that will feature the fine fare of New York’s beloved Gabrielle Hamilton, cocktails by Alex Ott, and a live performance by Twin Sister.
