Students at Marina del Rey Middle School took first prize in the 2008 Traffic Safety Mural Contest.

The annual contest is sponsored by the LAPD, Automobile Club of Southern California and the Los Angeles Unified School District.

The theme, "Anti-DUI," required art students to sketch, design and paint a wall-size mural "depicting themes of traffic safety and awareness in an effort to enhance the quality of life in their community."

Marina del Rey Middle School is located at 12500 Braddock Dr.

Samuel Gompers and Thomas Starr King middle schools in Los Angeles came in second and third place, respectively.

Otis College of Art Design judged the murals.
