ADC YOUNG GUNS

Established by Jeffrey Keyton and Bill Oberlander in 1996, ADC Young Guns honors exceptionally talented young creatives early on in their careers. Originally conceived as a juried show limited to New York City, ADC Young Guns now functions as an annual global competition, judged exclusively by past winners.

Over the years, our roster has grown into a community network of rebels, prodigies and rising stars, including Stefan Sagmeister (YG1), James Victore (YG1), Alexander Gelman (YG1), Todd St. John (YG1), Mike Mills (YG1), Ryan McGinness (YG2), Scott Stowell (YG3), Christoph Neimann (YG3), Rei Inamoto (YG4), Deanne Cheuk (YG4), floto+warner (YG5), and Alex Trochut (YG6).

Young Guns winners receive the iconic ADC Young Guns cube and one year of free “Cube Club” membership to the ADC. Select winners are invited to participate in various ADC programs throughout the year, including our ADC Young Guns series at Apple Stores worldwide, FIVEPLUSFIVE sponsored by Adobe, and our educational programs such as Saturday Career Workshops and the Henry Wolf Photography Workshop.

Winners for ADC Young Guns 8 will be announced in October 2010 with an exhibition opening at the ADC Gallery in NYC. The limited edition Young Guns 8 Annual published exclusively for the ADC by Moleskine will also hit bookshelves in early October.

Call for Entries for ADC Young Guns 9 will open in Spring 2011. The competition remains open to professionals age 30 or under who have at least two years of work experience.
