Penguin Days, Photo Contest On Tap at the Aquarium

The Aquarium of Niagara is celebrating the 22nd Annual Penguin Days in March with a penguin photography contest.

Three winners will be chosen: first place, second place, and honorable mention.

Each entrant may submit between one and five photographs of the Niagara Aquarium’s own prize penguins or photos taken of other penguins elsewhere. To take photos of the penguins at the Aquarium of Niagara, one only has to come, pay admission and take as many pictures as desired.

The first-prize winner will receive a penguin encounter; second prize winner will receive an 8” x 10” unframed penguin art piece from the Aquarium; and the honorable mention winner will receive a 4” x 6” unframed penguin art piece from the Aquarium. Each winner will also receive an award certificate.

All submissions must have the entrant's name on the back of the photo with location and title. Mail photographs and required entry form to the Aquarium of Niagara, Exhibits Department, 701 Whirlpool Street, Niagara Falls, N. Y., 14301 by March 13, 2013.

Photographs will be displayed at the Aquarium’s annual Penguin Days Celebration on March 23-24. For more information, contact the Exhibits Department at 285-3575, ext. 211, or email at aonaquarium@aim.com
