Local Students Win Art/Photography Contest Winners of the Neptunian Art/Photography Contest, chosen from nine local schools. By Lynne Gross The winners of the Neptunian Woman’s Club’s Art/Photography Contest received their awards at a packed auditorium on Sunday, March 9. Fifty-eight local students were honored with first, second, and third place prizes at the 36th annual show, held at the Neptunian Club House on Highland Avenue. The works had been judged by Bo Bridges, renowned photographer and local gallery owner; Helen Marish, Director of Art 2 Go; and Noelle Parks, Founder and Interior Designer of Noelle Interiors. Students from nine local schools submitted entries to the contest: Mira Costa High School, Manhattan Beach Middle School, American Martyrs, Manhattan Academy, Grand View, Meadows, Pacific, Pennekamp, and Robinson. The art works were judged by grade level, with awards going to students from kindergarten through twelfth grade. The photography contest was for sixth through twelfth graders. All of the art and photography works that had been submitted were on display at the Club House prior to the awards ceremony. Attendees were also treated to cookies, punch, tea, and pizza provided by the Neptunians. Mary Essman coordinated the event, Neptunian President Elaine Trotter welcomed the parents and friends of the artists, and Amy Dorr made the presentations. •
