This contest is in memory of Sanford L. Rosenberg, a graduate of the Loomis School, Cornell University and Cornell Law School. While he spent his professional career expressing himself as a corporate attorney, he developed a passion for photography later in life. Through his lens, he enjoyed expressing his creative side with images of nature and dance. He was a mentor to many in the areas of law and the visual and performing arts.

The Connecticut Valley Regional Ballet Company Inc. and The Ethel Walker School have been involved in the development and promotion of dance photography for the past six years. We have had many inspired responses to this exhibit. It is our common interest in the promotion of Dance and Photography that have brought us together to develop a venue to celebrate these unique art forms. It is with this experience that we have decided to create a contest which honors "moving moments."

The movement in all forms of dance imaged in the moment by photography is our goal. Momentum: Images of Dance captures the energy and drama of both mediums.

We have established an annual event that secures your trust and promotes the tradition of our institutional missions. We hope you will participate in this contest.

Thank you!
