Water is Life Art Contest
The winners of the 2023 "Water is Life" Art Contest!
Every Spring, Pasadena Water and Power holds the "Water is Life" Art Contest to reward incredible artwork from local K-12 students depicting water-wise themes. This year was especially great, with more than 20 submissions of hand drawn art!
We want to extend our thanks to everyone who submitted a piece of art. Ten submissions will be forwarded to the Metropolitan Water District (MWD) regional art contest for additional prizes and recognition. Winners came from Hamilton Elementary School, Madison Elementary School, Sierra Madre Middle School, CIS Academy, Westridge School, and La Salle College Preparatory School. Our 2023 first place winner is grade 9 student Olivia H.! Congratulations Olivia!
