Photography Contest 2009

Danika Fry (student)
Rice, Fire, and Water
Sideman, Bali

The International Week photography contest is another way that Edmonton and the world connect during International Week. This year, each photographer explains how their pictures are marked by threads of change, be it the jarring juxtaposition of new and old or the powerful fusion of tradition and modernity. 

We were impressed by all of the entries we received, and our photography contest coordinator, Anna Stacheychuk, extends a warm thank-you to everyone who submitted their work.

The photographs are featured:

  • In the International Week 2008 Program Guide or in the Global Education section of this website
  • In our photo exhibition “A Feast for the Eyes”
  • During the International Week concert as a slide show
  • And, the overall photo winner's photograph will be featured in the International House 2009/2010 calendar.

Congratulations to our 3 winners and 17 other finalists!
