ROLEX AWARDS FOR ENTERPRISE Photo Exhibit

Rolex at South Coast Plaza will unveil the first exhibition featuring rarely-seen photographs and documentary films capturing the work and the history of the Rolex Awards for Enterprise on Wednesday, May 25 through Sunday, June 12.

The Rolex Awards for Enterprise support individuals from around the globe who push the limits of exploration and discovery for social good. These projects – which have touched all aspects of humanity by expanding knowledge or improving life on the planet – will be celebrated at the South Coast Plaza exhibit.

Select Laureates who have received this award over the past 40 years will be visiting Costa Mesa this week for the opening of the exhibit such as Lonnie Dupre most known for his record-breaking expeditions like his solo climb of Mt. McKinley and for being the first to dog sled the Artic Northwest Passage. Dupre’s historic Arctic expedition in 2005, which put the impacts of climate change on the map, was made possible by the $100,000 award from Rolex.

Dupre’s work and that of other recipients of the catalytic awards program will be unveiled in the one-of-a-kind photography exhibit.
