A CELEBRATION OF DIVERSE CREATIVITY
The One Club champions the global creative community through the calendar year, but its efforts culminate with the celebration of Creative Week, which takes place every May in New York City.
By day, Creative Week features a handful of sessions, workshops, and reviews, designed to foster discussion, reflection, and connection in the advertising and design industries. By night, Creative Week rolls out the red carpet as it recognizes the very best work of the past year by way of three internationally acclaimed award shows: the lauding of “big ideas” at The One Show 2024; the celebration of design and craftsmanship at the ADC 103rd Annual Awards; a showcase of typographic perfection at the Type Directors Club’s 70 Annual Competition Exhibition; and the salute to the next generation of talent at the Young Ones Student Awards.
Whether you’re just starting your journey as a young creative or you’re picking up another Gold Pencil or Cube in your long advertising career, Creative Week has something for you.

Annual Awards
Manhattan's stunning Gotham Hall was the setting last night for the 103rd ADC Annual Awards. For over a century, ADC has tirelessly championed the crafts of design, illustration, photography, motion, interactive, advertising and beyond.
Congratulations to all the talented creatives who took home the night's highest honors! Their remarkable work continues ADC's rich legacy of identifying and cultivating genius-level creative vision.
YOUNG ONES
Student Awards 2024
The future of the creative industry was on full display last night at Sony Hall in New York City for the 2024 Young Ones Student Awards. Advertising's youngest and brightest gathered to celebrate the best student work of the year across a variety of categories.
The energy was electric as the next generation of creative talent had their names called to take home coveted Pencils, Cubes and other honors. For these students from top colleges, grad programs and portfolio schools, winning a Young Ones award is a dream first step towards legendary careers.
The rock 'n roll vibe of the sold out Sony Hall proved to be the perfect setting as winners took the stage amid thunderous applause and cheers from their peers. While their journey is just beginning, these creatives have already proven they have the chops to make it big.
From hilarious campaigns to groundbreaking design work, the 2023 Young Ones winners represented the full spectrum of creative genius. If last night's show was any indication, the future of advertising, design and digital creativity is in incredibly capable hands.
Congratulations to all the winners! The One Club can't wait to see what amazing work you create next as you ride this momentum into the real world.

TDC 70
Winners Announced
After months of anticipation and seven decades of typographic history, the Type Directors Club is honored to unveil the TDC 70th Annual Competition winners!
Annual Competition Exhibition
The Type Directors Club celebrated a major milestone by unveiling the winners of its 70th annual competition in breathtaking fashion. A reception at Location 05 welcomed members and guests to experience the very best in type and lettering from the past year.
From bold experiments in lettering to more subtle applications of precise type design, the 70th annual winners represented the full spectrum of creativity and craftsmanship in the field. The jurors' daunting task of choosing bests from such an incredible pool of talent was evident.
The 70th annual winners exhibition will extend its reach far beyond New York, travelling to major cities around the world over the next year. This global tour will allow type enthusiasts and designers from all corners to experience and draw inspiration from the TDC's curation of the latest typographic excellence.
For the winners celebrating amongst friends and colleagues, the evening marked the culmination of countless hours of passion and hard work. Their pieces will forever be enshrined as shining examples of typographic excellence. Here's to 70 more years!
TDC LETTERING WALK
New York is one of the most fascinating cities in the world, and a casual stroll through any of its famous locales is sure to be a typographic journey, by way of its architecture and signage.
On Thursday, May 16, slip into some comfortable shoes and join us as designer, calligrapher, and historian Paul Shaw returns to lead us on one of his renowned TDC Lettering Walks. This year, we will be headed down the spine of Manhattan, along Broadway from City Hall all the way to the Battery! Along the way we will check out sites such as the Sun Building, St. Paul's Chapel, Trinity Church, the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange, the Brooklyn/Battery Tunnel, the Cunard Building, and the Municipal Ferry Terminal. For those so inclined, we’ll even hop aboard the Staten Island Ferry for lunch in the neighborhood of St. George, where a breathtaking view of Manhattan is always on the menu.

EXECUTIVE CREATIVE SUMMIT
Refreshing perspectives on creative leadership
The Executive Creative Summit returns in-person to New York for the first time since 2019, and whoa, what a difference five years can make to our industry! A global pandemic, diversity going under the microscope, the birth of WFH culture, the physical downsizing of office space, the rise of AI — it’s enough to burden anybody!
That's why the Executive Creative Summit aims to bring together decision-makers in our community for support and inspiration. Making beautiful and smart creative work is a challenge unto itself, but add to that the concerns of keeping clients happy, staff inspired, business growing, revenues in check, and the lights, well, on, and the life of a C-suite executive, agency founder or partner can be complicated and even isolating.

The New Culture of Community
Jordan Randall
Global Integrated Marketing Communications, TikTok
We've come a long way from traditional media to social media, and now we're in the era of culture media. TikTok communities feel like close-knit spaces where users feel safe and connected. Whether it's #FarmTok, #CleanTok, or #FilmTok, every subculture has a home on TikTok, and joining is easy—no gatekeeping required. But how can brands tap into this niche mindset, and what does it mean for creatives?
