DCS sister organization, AAF-Dayton, is celebrating its 100th anniversary--starting with last Hermes Awards and concluding at the 2012 Hermes. Coming up Thursday, November 3, AAF-Dayton is hosting its 100th Anniversary Retrospective, hosted by Cox Media Group Ohio, featuring a number of events:

RETROSPECTIVE
AAF-Dayton has been sifting through the archives and will have historical documents and photos on display, and they're seeking other Dayton-area agencies, printers, design studios, and businesses to tell their story, as well.

Displays can tell any story: the history of your agency, award-winning client work, favorite pro-bono work--whatever you want to showcase from your archives. AAF-Dayton is are asking for a $100 sponsorship donation that will cover display space and event promotion. Click here for sponsorship the details.

SILENT AUCTION

If you or your business would like to promote yourselves by donating an auction item (suggested retail value of at least $100), contact AAF-Dayton and be one of the first to be added to the list.
