ADCOLOR brings the 2020 experience online due to global COVID-19 pandemic
ADCOLOR, the premier organization dedicated to celebrating and promoting professionals of color and diversity in the creative industries, announced ADCOLOR 2020 will be going virtual due to the ongoing COVID-19 situation. This includes the Conference, ADCOLOR FUTURES program and the 14th Annual Awards. The decision to go virtual was made in light of national and state regulations and to adhere to guidance from public health officials.
As part of the adjustment to this year’s format, ADCOLOR 2020 will now be held online from Tuesday, September 8th to Thursday, September 10th. Additional details on the full schedule and conference content will be provided at a later date. Registration for the online event will open in June.

“Business as usual has quickly turned into business unusual amid COVID-19, and our main priorities right now are to continue supporting our community and to prioritize everyone’s health and well-being,” says ADCOLOR’s Founder and President, Tiffany R. Warren. “Communities of color have been disproportionately affected during this pandemic, making it especially important that we uphold our mission and champion these and all communities in the creative, marketing and tech industries even when it can’t be done in person. We are extremely grateful for the partners who have supported us through this adjustment despite their own set of challenges, and we’re excited to execute something great together.”
Upholding its 2020 theme of “Here For It”, ADCOLOR is continuing all ADCOLOR Award nominations and ADCOLOR FUTURES applications as planned. For both opportunities, the deadline for submissions has been extended to Friday, June 5th.
