THE ALTA VISTA GARDENS – THROUGH CHILDREN'S EYES
Through Children's Eyes, Inc. in cooperation with the Alta Vista Gardens in Vista, is conducting a children's photography and exhibition project at the Alta Vista Gardens in Brengle Terrace Park.
Children can take photos with their digital camera during the gardens' regular hours, and email them to: tartanstar@earthlink.net by February 13, 2010. Those using film cameras can submit negatives and small prints to the Vista library Children's Librarian. Participation in the photography project is free.
Additionally, from 11:00 am to12: 00 noon, on February 13, (after the monthly “Kids in the Garden” class * ) there will be a free escorted photo hike for kids around the Gardens. Participants must bring their own cameras. The children do not have to be a resident of Vista to participate.
The Vista Library's Children's Section will display the children's photography throughout March , and on April 10, there will be a reception and exhibit at the Alta Vista Garden House.
This is not a photo contest; it's our chance to see our world, and the beautiful, scenic Alta Vista Gardens, through children's eyes. Some of their photos may be included in a future AVG calendar.
For detailed information and a PDF of the form required for participating, please review the Alta Vista Garden's link to the project at: http://www.altavistagardens.org/html/photo_essay.html
