About Art+Copy Club
The Art+Copy Club is a special interest group of the Advertising Club of Kansas City that exists to celebrate, inspire and educate any artist with the courage to face a blank page. Our membership includes writers, designers, photographers and others in the advertising industry and beyond.
Throughout the year we hold several events for our members. These events include:
Clio Reel Party – Inspiration comes in many forms. And in advertising, it often comes in the form a funny or poignant commercial. The Clios are one of the most prestigious award shows for advertising professionals. And every year we bring the reel of highlights, enjoy some eats and get cozy to watch some of the greatest spots of the year.
Speaker Series – One of the greatest ways to learn: straight from the horse’s mouth. Two to three times a year a well-known advertising and design professional will grace us with their presence and their knowledge. Come in thirsty, leave with your brain quenched.
Gallery Night – Advertising professionals rarely have the chance for their creative visions to survive unscathed. Art+Copy Club’s Gallery Night changes that. Once a year the advertising community brings their best forms of artistic self-expression out of their basement and into the gallery for their peers to see. Your muse can be set free… and the prospect of cash prizes makes it even sweeter.
The Cheeky Award – In its infancy, the Art+Copy Club Cheeky Award is sure to become an event that everyone looks forward to. One night each year, we toast (and roast) an esteemed creative member of the advertising community voted by his or her peers. Laughs, liquor, and loving sentiments will flow like the Missouri River on this special evening.
There’s always something to do around here, so if you want to get involved, the opportunities are endless.
