ADCOLOR 2020 Goes Virtual

ADCOLOR 220 is on & popping online & we are #hereforit!

The infamous, beloved, and impactful ADCOLOR conference kicked off this week with it’s first-ever fully Virtual conference, and we are here for it… literally! The Colored Girl CEO & co-founder Rachelle Daglis is among the many featured incredibly talented & season names in the stellar lineup during this week’s conference.

The decision to take the conference virtual was one well thought out by the Adcolor Team and highly loved by participants & attendees alike.

“Business, as usual, has quickly turned into business unusual amid COVID-19, and our main priorities right now are to continue supporting our community and to prioritize everyone’s health and well-being,”
