DAVIS — The Cortland Foundation’s ninth annual Photography Contest is ready to unveil the winning images that will transform the halls of Cortland Acres Health & Rehab into a gallery of regional beauty.

This year, 48 photographers from across West Virginia, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Virginia, and Maryland submitted their best work.

There will be a Grand Unveiling Reception at 2:15 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 4.

Guests will also have the chance to cast their vote for the coveted People’s Choice Award.

“This event is more than just an art show — it’s a celebration of the incredible talent in our region and the beauty that surrounds us every day,” said Crystal Boone, Director of the Cortland Foundation.

This year’s winners include: Sharon Boone, Eric Brumbaugh, Leiane Gibson, Matthew Grahovac, Kathy Jenkins, Chad Kettlewell, Joseph McKane, Bonnie Myers, June Proctor, Ed Rehbein, Michael Ribas, Dan Rose, Dana Rukse, Travis Shultz, Van Slide, Beth Spencer and Alan Tucker.
