City of Scottsdale

Earth Day 2020 Art Contest

The Art of the Tree

This year marks the 50th anniversary of Earth Day and to celebrate the City of Scottsdale is hosting an art contest for youth. The theme for the contest is “The Art of the Tree” to coincide with many other tree related activities we are hosting this spring like tree plantings, seminars on finding the right tree for the right place in our desert environment, Xeriscape demonstrations and more. Trees are one important component to keeping our city cool and we invite youth, our future creative community leaders, to interpret trees through art.
