we bring together creatives, communicators, and big thinkers from across VCU to explore the world of advertising and beyond.

For nearly 20 years, Ad Club at VCU has been helping students turn passion into profession.

Whether you dream of creating viral campaigns, designing jaw-dropping visuals, or pitching the next big idea, Ad Club is your launchpad into the world of advertising and beyond.

We offer real-world experiences that go beyond the classroom. Think creative competitions, agency tours, portfolio showcases, and fun and helpful workshops that prepare you for the industry from day one.

Ad Club is a collaborative community where students from all majors and backgrounds come together to create, connect, and grow.

Advertising touches everything, so no matter your skills or interests, there’s a place for you here.

CORE VALUES

INCLUSION

There is a place for everyone in Ad Club, regardless of major, experience, or technical skills. We value all voices and perspectives and believe that diversity makes us greater.

PROFESSIONALISM

Preparing for the industry post-grad means learning how to be professional now. We mirror the “real world” in our events, communications, and workshops. But of course, we know how to have our fun too.

Collaboration

The most important skill in advertising is being able to work well with others. We encourage collaboration inside and outside of the classroom to improve teamwork skills.
