Today is World Homeless Day, a day dedicated to educating people about homeless issues, highlighting the local issues, and celebrating and supporting local good works. Join us for such a celebration tonight and attend a gallery at Propeller at 4035 Washington Avenue featuring images from all 62 participants in the MyNew Orleans Photo Project contest! Click here for more information on the event.

Last week, we told you how 9 of our guests were participants in the contest, and that 3 of them were declared as finalists. This week, we are excited to announce that another guest had his image awarded for the best “story” submitted with the photos. The HTC is very proud of everyone who participated, and we want to congratulate the four participants from the Center who were honored in the gallery on Saturday. Below are the winning photos of our guests, and be on the look-out for the calendar featuring all 13 finalist images that we are hoping to have available for purchase. Click here to be taken to the calendar’s kick-starter page.

We are so proud of all the talented guests we humbly serve at the Harry Tompson Center!
