“After NYC banned gatherings of more than 500 people at the time of the CMA convention, the annual ‘Photo Shoot-out’ challenged its photographers to document the ‘only story that mattered’ as the pandemic struck.

I knew we were all feeling the same thing.” — Katherine Hui, Duncan College sophomore
