Artists Needed-Annual Rain Barrel Art Event

Clermont SWCD is calling all local artists to participate in Save Local Waters’ annual Rain Barrel Art Project

What is it?

The Rain Barrel Art Project is open to artists of all ages and abilities. Interested artists must first submit a design by Dec. 15th for judging. A group of judges selects forty designs to be implemented. Artists receive the barrel and technical assistance from Save Local Waters.

Why Participate?

Barrels are displayed at the Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Garden for the month of April.

Barrels are auctioned via an eBay auction. The money raised from the auction goes towards environmental education at SaveLocalWaters.org and the Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Garden.
