This , we extend a big congratulations to the Avalon Consulting team behind the Smithsonian Women’s Committee’s annual Craft Show. They won Gold in Nonprofit Acquisition/Prospecting – Single Digital Channel at the 2026 MAXI Awards!

By shifting to a digital-first strategy, leveraging audience insights, and optimizing campaigns through detailed performance tracking, the team helped drive record-breaking attendance and sold-out events for the Smithsonian Women's Committee.

That’s the power of data-driven strategy, and the kind of innovative work we celebrate through DMAW’s annual MAXI Awards.
