Vancouver: Young artists hope to help stop crime, put an end to violence
Recreations of bloody crime scenes, weeping relatives and young people behind bars.
Those are just some of the images that more than 300 secondary students from across B.C. used to create anti-gang posters for a provincewide contest sponsored by The Vancouver Sun and the Gang Task Force.
Some entrants said they had seen gang violence in their communities. Others were art students who wanted to use their creative talent for an important cause.
The contest closed at midnight Friday and judging is now underway. Finalists will be announced in the coming days.
