Student Photography Contest
Cash Prizes – Public Exhibition
High School Students — You can be part of Pasadena’s 127th Birthday festivities!
On June 22, 2013, Pasadena Museum of History and the City of Pasadena will present a free community celebration for Pasadena’s 127th birthday. The theme is Celebrating Bridges, in acknowledgement of the 100th anniversary of our landmark, the Colorado Street Bridge.
The Happy Birthday Pasadena Committee invites you to help us illustrate the beauty and diversity of our community’s other bridges. Get out your camera and be creative.

We are looking for unique views, so don’t be afraid to be different.
