Following four months of exciting Shutter-Bug
Events and PhotoVoice Workshops run throughout the Central Coast,
the Our Earth, Our Stories Nature Photography Competition culminated in
a special awards night on Friday 13th July, with special guest and
world famous nature photographer Steve Parish in attendance to present
the awards.
Over 130 members from the local Central Coast community attended the Wyong Civic Centre awards ceremony. It was a great night celebrating the efforts of individuals and community groups and contributions they had made to make the Our Earth, Our Stories project so successful.
The touring exhibition has now finished and the special Our Earth, Our Stories Web Gallery has gone live!
