My Brooklyn: The Winners
2nd Annual Photo and Essay Contest
Sponsored by
Brooklyn Public Library
and Con Edison
July 1 - September
20, 2003
Central Library, Grand Lobby
Home to over 2.5 million people-and former home
to millions of others-Brooklyn is both a geographical reality and a vital
memory. My Brooklyn, the photo and essay contest sponsored
by Brooklyn Public Library and Con Edison, now in its second year, allows
Brooklynites of all ages to visually document the physical and human aspects of
the borough as well as provide written testimony as to how Brooklyn figures in
our imagination.
Winners are selected in three categories:
Adult, Young Adult (ages 13 through 19),
and Juvenile (ages 12 and under). First and second place winners, as well as
finalists, are selected in each category by a panel of Brooklyn authors.
