The city of Tucson’s Environmental Services Department is sponsoring a “Look What’s New With Do More Blue” poster contest.
Tucson students in grades six through eight are invited to create a poster that highlights the importance of recycling.
This contest is an opportunity for students to creatively express their understanding of recycling and waste reduction and spread that message to the residents of Tucson, according a press release.
The winning artwork will be enlarged and displayed on the side of a Tucson collection truck. Students in Tucson public, private and charter schools (including home-schooled students) are eligible.
Posters should clearly present a motivational message about recycling. Their theme can include the topics “reduce, reuse, recycle,” using the Blue Barrel, “Do More Blue,” and materials accepted at the materials recovery facility.
