AAF District 7 is excited to launch The Mosaic 7!

The Mosaic 7 showcases the most impactful multicultural advertising, marketing, and media moments of the past year, based on submissions from chapters within our five state coverage area. 

This initiative employs a unique and thoughtful methodology to spotlight inclusive content, providing valuable insights into audience perceptions of the media they consume.

Judging

After receiving submissions, a diverse panel of consumers will evaluate and score the content according to specific criteria to determine The Mosaic 7. These results play a crucial role in identifying key trends within our industry and guide our efforts to promote diversity and inclusion within our District and industry. 

The Mosaic 7 will be revealed at AAF District 7’s Spring Convention. A panel of diverse creatives will discuss trends and insights that rise from the winning submissions. 

All local Mosaic ADDY® winners will be automatically forwarded to District 7 as a Mosaic 7 submission.

All submissions must be received by March 2026 TBD
