“I am proud of all the students who have participated in the Student Digital Media Competition,” stated Assemblymember Calderon. “They have demonstrated their creativity, as well as their passion and commitment to educating our community about human rights.”

Students attending high schools in the 57th Assembly District and greater Los Angeles County submitted entries that focus on the subjects of human rights and genocide. High school contestant entries will be screened during the Festival on June 8th with a recognition and scholarship awards presentation to follow.

Entertainment, The Walt Disney Company, and the City of Whittier. Admission is free and all are welcome.
