The Kearns Improvement District 2025 Water Conservation Art Contest is underway and residents are encouraged to submit entries through Thursday, March 20. Using the theme “Water Conservation,” participants can create art that promotes water-saving practices, the beauty of water or the importance of conservation.

The medium for the artwork can include painting, photography, drawing, sculpture, mixed media, collage or digital art. Prizes will be awarded in the adult, high school, junior high school and elementary categories. Participants must reside within the boundaries of the KID service area. 

Contributors should submit a high-resolution photograph or scan of their artwork in digital format plus a 50-word (or less) description of how the artwork depicts water conservation. Prize money will be awarded to the top four finishers in each age group.

This is the third year for the art contest. When announcing last year’s winners, KID General Manager Greg Anderson said, “Part of our continuing conservation effort is working with schools and helping the kids to realize how big an impact they could have on water conservation within their own home.”

Winners will be announced on Monday, April 21. Winning entries will be displayed on KID’s website and social media sites and used in the 2025 KID water conservation marketing effort. 

All submissions must be sent to [email protected] before the contest deadline. More information, rules and guidelines can be found at kidwater4ut.gov. λ
