The Inland Empire Utilities Agency offers a “Water is Life” Student Art Poster Contest annually. Using the theme “Being water-wise is…” students in Grades K-12 in IEUA’s service area are invited to create an art poster depicting various water uses, ways to use water more efficiently, or water conservation topics.

Recommended topics include:

  • Inside or outside of the home or school
  • In the environment (nature)
  • In agriculture
  • In business & industry
  • In recreation
  • Use of drought-tolerant plants
  • Use of efficient irrigation systems

Submissions is OPEN for 2025/26 entries! Please contact Hazel Ceron at hceron@ieua.org for upload instructions.

IEUA received so many creative posters for the 2024/25 “Water is Life” contest and would like to thank everyone for their submissions. In December 2024, Metropolitan Water District (MWD) selected two winners from IEUA’s service area. Congratulations to our two winners: Cameron Dunlap (2024 Graduate/Upland High School) and Rebecca Lee (2024 Graduate/Chino Hills High School). We look forward to seeing the submissions for 2025/26.
