On August 15, 1945, when the neighbors in the 2200 block of
St. Roch Street in New Orleans
heard the news that Japan had
surrendered and the war was
finally over, they spontaneously
paraded through the streets,
celebrating America’s
long-fought for victory in
WWII. Celebrations like this
one erupted across the Home
Front in communities large and
small. What they all shared in
common was the sense that all
Americans had been part of the
fight—and all Americans had been
part of the victory.
The theme of this year’s art contest was
Teamwork.
Below are the winners:
