Hillsboro Water is inviting local high school students in our service area to design artwork for a new Hometown Tap board.
Hillsboro will soon begin supplementing its water supply from the Tualatin River with an additional source from the Willamette River. The Willamette Water Supply System (WWSS) will help ensure a reliable water supply for our community for generations to come.
To mark this exciting achievement, Hillsboro Water is seeking creative artwork that showcases the Willamette River as Hillsboro's additional water source. The winning design will be featured on a Hometown Tap board.
Each year between April and October, Hometown Tap Boards provide a free and sustainable source of high-quality drinking water at community events throughout Hillsboro. Your artwork could be seen by thousands of people at popular locations, like Downtown Hillsboro, Shute Park, and Orenco Station.
This contest is open to all high school students in Hillsboro's service area. Whether you're an experienced artist or just enjoy creating, we want to see your vision for celebrating our new water source. All artistic styles are welcome.
1. Scan your design or take a clear photo of it
2. Email it to [email protected]
3. Submit it by February 17
This is your chance to leave a lasting mark on the community while celebrating our water future. We can't wait to see what you create!
