3 Steps to Apply: 2018 Adobe Government Creativity Awards
Share your work. Get recognized for your creative efforts in government, and join our private Slack community of government technology marketers!
For the third year, Adobe will be hosting the Adobe Government Creativity Awards.
As government marketers caught in the day-to-day shuffle, we often forget how vital our work is in keeping our country connected.
That’s why Adobe recognizes and awards the top creative teams in this industry. We want to highlight the best work from the people making government more efficient—working hard to connect local, state and federal agencies with citizens using technology, while delivering a seamless UX.
It’s easy to apply! After you gather your project details, it takes three steps and less than 5 minutes to submit your application.
Log in, fill out your profile, and submit your Behance URL.
