COMMUNITY AFFAIRS: AICP East Emerging Talent Mixer Roundup

It’s safe to say this year’s Emerging Talent Mixer was a success! Each year, the AICP East Board hosts a mixer in New York City for rising talent. Tailored to junior creatives and producers, this event gives them an opportunity to meet and network in a welcoming space.

Hosted at Heard City, the event attracted over 60 guests from AICP member companies. Several Board members were in attendance in addition to the young creatives. The evening – which featured a taco bar, chicken tenders, pizza and drinks – buzzed with conversation and connection.

East Board President Shelby Ross, Managing Partner/EP at Group Thrpy, and East Board Vice President Lauren Hertzberg, Managing Partner at Cut+Run spoke to the importance of making connections, and touted this year’s Camp K competition and the AICP Mentoring Program. The evening’s remarks concluded with a raffle. Winners included:
