The Mountlake Terrace Arts Advisory Commission presents the Kiah Helms Photography Exhibit at the Mountlake Terrace Library, 23300 58th Ave. W. starting Nov. 1.

Kiah Helms is a junior at Mountlake Terrace High School. She began taking photographs when she was 13 years old. By age 14, she realized she had a talent and eye for capturing unique images.

“I am inspired by the colors that are in photographs and the contrast the colors make when they join together,” Helms said.

Helms’ hobbies include photography, horseback riding and gymnastics. Helms’ work has been jury accepted into the Arts of the Terrace and the Edmonds Art Festival.

“After I graduate from high school, I would like to attend the University of Washington and become a professional photographer and have my own studio,” Helms said.

The Mountlake Terrace Arts Advisory Commission oversees the library exhibits as part of its mission to promote cultural events in the community.

The show runs through Nov. 30 at the Mountlake Terrace Library, Mondays through Thursdays, 10 a.m. to 9 p.m., Fridays, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Saturdays, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sundays 1 to 5 p.m.
