Poster Contest - 2024 Drinking Water Week

For more than 40 years the American Water Works Association and its members have used Drinking Water Week as a unique opportunity for both water professionals and the communities they serve to recognize the vital role water plays in our daily lives.

This year's recognition is May 5-11, 2024.

The City of Grants Pass is calling all kids, grades K-12, to design a poster to demonstrate the year's theme, "Reimagine Our Water Future." Three winners will be chosen from each category. Enter for a chance to win $75, $50, or $25!

Entries will be judged based on creativity, originality, and relevance to the theme. Winners and their artwork will be featured on City social media platforms, and on the County buses this summer. Entrants are allowed to use crayons, colored pencils, markers, pens, or watercolors on an 8.5" x 11" piece of paper; a link to the complete rules can be found below.

Deadline: April 26, 2024

  • Grades K-2
  • Grades 3-5
  • Grades 6-8
