The art contest is a collaborative water education program between West Basin and MWD. Each year, participating students create hand-drawn artwork that promotes the sustainability and protection of Earth’s limited water resources.
Winning artwork from West Basin’s local art contest advances to MWD’s regional competition, with the opportunity to be featured in the agency’s region-wide calendar. Only a select number of entries are ultimately featured in the calendar, which is typically distributed to more than 10,000 recipients.
West Basin’s 2021 Water is Life Student Art Contest will launch in January. Winners from next year’s contest will have the opportunity to be featured in MWD’s 2022 Water is Life calendar.
