Creative Climate Action Art Contest

Sharing Passion for Art and the Environment 

As part of our outreach and engagement efforts during climate planning work, the Agency sponsored a Creative Climate Action Art Contest. We are grateful to all the artists who shared their interest and passion for climate and our environment through art, bringing people together in new and unique ways to engage in climate topics.

Artwork is used throughout the Puget Sound Region Final Comprehensive Climate Action Plan, on our web site and social media posts, and in presentation materials.
