Every year, Boston GLOW sponsors an Awards Banquet honoring the finalists of the IGNITE Change essay contest.

This year, the Awards Banquet was held at Maggiano's Boston, where the finalists and their friends and families mingled with the panel of young adult authors who judged the contest over dinner.  Afterward, the finalists took the stage to receive their educational scholarships and an array of prizes from Boston GLOW leadership.

Here are some shots of the evening:
