EARLY BIRD DEADLINE: APRIL 7, 2026
The AI Creative Awards is a tribute to the next evolution of visual storytelling. We aren't just looking for AI-generated images; we are looking for the human vision behind them. This competition marks the launch of a new platform where human intuition meets machine intelligence. This is not merely a showcase of technology, but a celebration of the evolving creative vision born from the synergy between designers and AI.
For over 80 years, Graphis has championed bold ideas and visual excellence that shape our culture. Today, we extend that legacy into a new frontier—honoring creatives who embrace AI as a medium, a co-creator, and a catalyst for unprecedented innovation.
This is where design meets intelligence. Join us in defining the future of creative expression.
