Tucker launches photography contest highligting the city

As Tucker’s city staff prepares to move into a new City Hall later this month, they need help decorating the new space to make it feel uniquely “Tucker.” To that end, the City is holding a photography contest for all residents, with the winning snapshots being hung on the walls inside the new City Hall, according to a press release.

“We’re excited to give our residents a chance to be invested in making this new City Hall feel like home,” said Tucker Facilities Coordinator Janelle Law.

The contest will be limited to Tucker residents and only photographs taken within the City limits will be considered. Winners will also receive a City of Tucker swag bag and will be recognized at a City Council meeting.

To enter, send photographs to info@tuckerga.gov.

The deadline for entries is July 10.
