Best of Show and 36 More Awards at the 2019 ADDYs

The American Advertising Awards (commonly called the ADDYs) is one of the advertising industry’s largest creative competitions, and for us here at DS, the local event is a can’t miss. It’s a time to dress up, celebrate and show off our best work. Themed “The Good, The Ads and The Ugly” for the 2019 event, the Knoxville ADDY Awards is the first tier of the national awards event. Winning work from the local competition is eligible for district and national competitions.

We are proud to have won ten Gold awards, six of ten Best Of awards, and even named Best of Show, the top award of the night, for our work on the STEM Scouts “MakeFuture” Campaign. If not for the ambition and dedication of our clients and the passion and vision of our team, we know none of this could have happened. So thank you and congratulations to everyone who contributed to each and every one of these project!

Without further ado, here’s a complete rundown of everything we brought home this year.
