Woollahra Council Youth Photographic Award
Project Summary
The Woollahra Council Youth Photographic Award and Short Film Prize is an annual photography and short film competition open to local high school students in the Woollahra area and run as a joint project by the Woollahra Library and Information Service and the Waverley Woollahra Arts Centre.
Each year the photographic and short film entries are judged by industry professionals. Prizes are presented by the Mayor of Woollahra and the judges at a presentation night attended by the students, their families and teachers. The photographs and short films are on display at the presentation night and for two weeks after at the Woollahra Council and then for a further two weeks at the Paddington Library.
In 2007 the Woollahra Council Youth Photographic Award attracted a record number of entries with 158 photographs and 17 short films submitted by students from ten high schools in the area.
