It is with great pride and excitement that the Downtown Long Beach Alliance announces all the finalists of this year’s DTLB Unfiltered photo contest! 

Throughout October Arts Month, shutterbugs of all abilities submitted photos in seven categories after exploring every corner of Downtown to capture its multi-faceted visual poetry. 

Each entry was reviewed by a panel of judges comprising Arts Council for Long Beach staff and local professional photographers. They selected the winners, runners-up, and honorable mentions, knowing that when anyone lends their perspective and creativity to this contest, everyone wins!
