Portfolio Night 10 Philadelphia

Portfolio Night 10 Philadelphia is a very special event, unique to both the Philly advertising industry and to PN10 itself. While events in other Portfolio Night 10 cities are normally only open to aspiring creatives with advertising portfolios to show, PN10 Philadelphia is open to all with an interest in getting to know the local advertising community. There are two types of tickets for Portfolio Night 10

The Traditional Ticket is for aspiring advertising and design creatives with portfolios to show. This ticket works the same way PN10 tickets work in all other cities; you’ll be given one-on-one face time with some of Philly’s top creative directors, who will critique the work in your portfolio, offering you advice on how to improve your work and maybe even start your creative advertising career!

To determine if this ticket is right for you, please read this link.

The Guest Ticket is for people who fall outside of the “Traditional Ticket” group. Perhaps you’re an ad/marketing/PR major, and you’re curious to find out more about advertising as a career. Maybe you’re looking to break into advertising, but in a role such as Account Management or Media Planning/Buying. Or perhaps you are a photographer, illustrator, animator or some other artist looking to offer your services to agencies. In all of these cases, the Guest Ticket is right for you. While you will not receive scheduled one-on-one meetings during the portfolio review, you’ll be free to mingle and socialize, engaging in informal chats throughout the evening.

Ticket Prices: $30.00 USD
