The Anacostia Watershed Society (AWS) and the Lamond-Riggs Citizens Association (LRCA) are seeking artists to create designs and paint murals on a total of 3 storm drains in Lamond-Riggs. The goal of these murals is to raise awareness of storm drains as a connection to our local waterways. Selected artists will receive a commission of $750 per storm drain. This Mural Design competition is open to artists of all ages, including school groups and individual students. Materials (paint and brushes) will be provided.

Designs are due by 5:00 pm on November 16. Mural installation will take place in April 2019. Details at the link.

This project is funded through the Community Stormwater Solutions Grant from the Department of Energy and Environment.
