Student Photo Contest

La Jolla Historical Society’s 2nd Annual Student Photo Contest

Our first Student Photo Contest was a huge success with over 100 entries. The theme for this year’s Student Photo Contest, open to all La Jolla students grades K-12, is “La Jolla: My Favorite Place.” Photo entries will be accepted at the La Jolla Historical Society offices between March 11 and May 11. Awards will be based on originality, imagination and the captivation of La Jolla’s unique natural, architectural, historic and/or cultural character. The rules for entering a photo have changed some. Each student may enter one photo. The photo must be the property of the student and may not have been previously published.

Entries may be any size and may be color or black and white. The photo must be mounted on an 11x14” black matte labeled with the student’s name, school and grade and attached to the mounting should be a CD with the image, minimum 300 DPI in JPEG, TIFF or PDF. Entries must include a signed Participation Waiver. Photo entries will join the tens of thousands of photos in the archives of the La Jolla Historical Society preserving our La Jolla for future generations and may be published with attribution and without compensation. Outside the Lens will provide a photo workshop April 18 from 4-5:30. For further information contact keckmo@yahoo.com.
