SEE 2019 WINNING ENTRIES
In 2019, 7th-grade student Huraman O. won first place in the national competition for the Middle School Division for Photography! Her photograph, “Don’t Judge a Book by its Cover,” is below.
Artist Statement: My photo represents the [2019] theme, “look within” because it shows that you shouldn’t judge a book by it’s cover. That means that its the pages and story that matters, not how pretty the cover is. The light represents somebody looking inside the book. That is why I believe that . my photo fits this theme.
VOLUNTEER RESPONSIBILITIES: Help recruit community judges, promote the event and assist with the Showcase.
