Being invited to attend an awards ceremony is flattering. Knowing that you’ve won something is exciting. Finding out that two of your clients won is humbling. Showing up in Times Square to find out that your agency and two of your clients won three Platinum Adrian Awards is . . . well, it’s a lot to take in.

And that’s exactly what happened Monday night.

It’s the first time the Missouri Division of Tourism, the St. Louis Convention and Visitors’ Commission or Hoffman | Lewis won one Platinum at the premier awards ceremony for the travel and tourism industry.

Let alone three.

Two for the St. Louis CVC and one for Missouri Tourism.

The campaigns have been mentioned before, but feel free to check them out again here and here. And if you need proof that HL was the most awarded agency at the show, check out the real story here.
