Third Annual Storm Drain Art Contest Winners Announced

Keep Forsyth County Beautiful and the Forsyth County Department of Water & Sewer have announced two local students as the winners of the 2024 Storm Drain Art Contest.

The contest winners are:

  • Emma Arnett (West Forsyth High School)
  • Aditri Thakur (South Forsyth Middle School)

The contest called for current Forsyth County middle and high school students to submit original artwork that educates about water quality and clearly enhances the theme "Only Rain Goes Down the Drain."

The contest winners have painted their creations on designated storm drains outside of their schools. They will also receive $100 in compensation for their work and certificates of recognition. See the winners' completed storm drain artwork.

"We all play an important role in keeping our waterways clear of litter, yard clippings and chemicals," said Forsyth County Manager of Environmental Programs Tammy Keaton. "Our talented contest winners are not only painting a storm drain but also beautifying our community as they help educate residents about watershed health."
