The 4As believes that imagination and inventiveness
should always be celebrated, in whatever form or scale. Thus, we have the CreativeFest and the Kidlat Awards.
Last year, in the middle of the pandemic, the festival's theme, Stories Don't Stop, echoed the relentless, creative spirit against challenging times.This year's theme, Creativity Unlocked, is again a call of defiance, creating stories from our dining rooms, living rooms, and bedrooms. Despite cramped spaces, limited movement and physical interaction, we've proven that the creative mind knows no boundaries and that great work is undoubtedly possible.
We will learn from a diverse group of storytellers worldwide how they've overcome obstacles: a creative leader rising above personal tragedy, a performer emerging from a culture of exclusion to mainstream acceptance, an innovative coach sharing her insights on mental exhaustion, to name a few.
We deliberately skipped the annual Kidlat Awards last year, because we felt that winning an award at that time was not as important as creating and learning. This year, Kidlat is back to recognize two years' worth of work exploding like lightning, not from the skies but our homes.
Our celebration this year is made possible by industry
talents who have dedicated months planning the event on top of running their businesses. A big thank you to CreativeFest Chairperson JC Valenzuela and his team at Propel Manila for generously sharing their talent and resources, and Kidlat Awards Chairperson Russ Molina of Seven A.D. and his committee of heavyweight creatives, assisted by our production partners Plan B.
At 4As, creativity means business, and the CreativeFest and Kidlat Awards are all about celebrating the business of creativity. Join us on Nov. 24 and 25 for the festival and Nov. 26 for the awards show, and see how creativity thrives when the world is locked up or on lockdown.
last year, the Philippines 4As (Association of Accredited Advertising Agencies) is once again bringing back CreativeFest from November 24 - 26, 2021. With the theme CREATIVITY UNLOCKED, this year’s CreativeFest highlights the relentless power of creativity to move not only businesses and individuals but the whole world, especially in the context of today’s ever-changing creative landscape. While the past year has had its diculties and challenges, we’ve also seen creativity persevere. That in the face of limits, creativity can unlock its best work — finding and creating solutions, bridging gaps, and being a force of good in the world. The three-day online festival will be filled with some of the biggest creative names from all over the world, culminating with the grand comeback of the Kidlat Awards.
CreativeFest is the country’s biggest gathering of creative minds, local and global experts, and thought leaders from dierent industries across continents. So expect nothing short of three days of back-to-back inspiring talks, extraordinary stories, masterclasses, idea-sparking roundtable discussions, and keynote speeches from our remarkable lineup of speakers — all coming together at an online festival that celebrates the power of creativity to move business, people, and nations.
