Photography Contest Winners And Reception
November 28, 2011
The Cumberland County Library is pleased to announce the winners of the photography contest. The theme of the exhibition is “Seen on a Summer Day”. Participants shared memories through photographs of their vacations or stay-cations and the judges had a difficult time selecting winners from the excellent photographs that were submitted.
