Spartan Photo Center is sponsoring its first high school photography contest with the entries now on display at the Chapman Cultural Center. The public is encouraged to see the exhibit and to vote for their favorite photos. The winner will be awarded a Diana Film Camera and many other prizes from the sponsors, including Spartan Photo Center, Zaxby’s, Jostens, The Coffee Bar, and Converse Deli.
The exhibit is on the second floor of the West Wing Building and is open for free public viewing Monday through Saturday, 10 a.m. -5 p.m. The deadline to vote is July 11 at 5 p.m. Spartan Photo Center will also host two more photography contests this year for different age groups and levels of experience. The top three winning photos from each of the contests will be published in a calendar available for purchase. The proceeds from the sales will be given to The Haven, a shelter for the homeless in Spartanburg. For more information, please call 864-583-6835.
