Member Mix: Join Us at Kirby Ice House Heights!

A great club year doesn't start with a calendar. It starts with the people who show up: members who keep coming back, the folks still deciding whether to join, and the friends of the org who make Houston's ad scene worth being part of.

Member Mix is where all of that gets going again. Join us Thursday, July 23 at Kirby Ice House to open the 2026–2027 club year. No panel, no pitch — just good people, cold drinks, and the easiest networking you'll do all summer. It's also the best night of the year to make it official.

AND Membership is discounted all July (AAF drops from $175 to $155, Ad2 from $75 to $65), and we're giving away free memberships online, plus goodies and free headshots (courtesy of Kolanowski Studio) live at the event!

Your membership keeps paying off long after the mixer: a 300+ member Houston community that's part of a 40,000+ national network, the AAF national/local Career Center job board, eCornell online courses and certificates, and member-only discounts on everyday tools (Lenovo, UPS, Office Depot, and more). If you're 32 or under, Ad2 also opens up committee and leadership roles to build real portfolio experience.

Whether you've been to every luncheon or you're walking into your first AAF Houston event, this one's for you. Come meet the community before the year gets busy.

This is a FREE event for everyone, we just ask that you please register so we have a place for you. All guests receive (1) drink ticket.

Sip, snack, and socialize with Houston's advertising, marketing and communications community!

Looking to get your name out there and support AAF-Houston? Consider being a sponsor. There are numerous ways to participate and all will give recognition during event promotion and signage at the event. Larger sponsorships will allow you to bring your own promotional materials to share with guests.
