On February 15, we launched "It's Time We Met," our first visitor-contributed photography contest. Hundreds of visitors submitted nearly one thousand photographs taken at the Museum's Main Building or at The Cloisters Museum and Gardens depicting how they've shared their Met experience with friends and family.

Out of the 999 submissions, the Museum's panel of judges selected two winnining photographs (at right), and five runners-up. The photographers received a prize, and their winning photographs will be used in the "It's Time We Met" marketing campaign.

In conjunction with the photo contest, we launched a citywide marketing campaign called "It's Time We Met." During the contest, we selected eight images from the Flickr community to appear in the campaign.
