Announcing the winners of the OWSD 25th Anniversary video competition

December 18, 2018

Twenty-five videos were selected for a special interactive feature.

On the occasion of OWSD's 25th Anniversary, we invited our network to share with us short videos explaining why they celebrate OWSD.

From many wonderful submissions, 25 winning videos were selected to be featured in a special interactive gallery to commemorate the milestone.

We are happy to share with you the results:
