“Each year, the City of Bellingham and the Whatcom Museum sponsor the “Essence of Bellingham” photography competition. Digital or scanned entries gathered over the previous year that capture the “essence” of Bellingham are showcased and added to a collection documenting Bellingham and the diverse nature of life in our city and county. 

Entries may appear in Whatcom Museum and City of Bellingham publications and in various places such as print, TV, and the Internet.”  [www.cob.org]
