“Every Drop Counts: Let’s Not Waste It”
Poster Contest Rules
The City of Santa Ana’s water conservation poster contest kicks off this fall for youth ages 518. The overall theme for this year’s contest is “Every Drop Counts: Let’s Not Waste It.” That
means wise and efficient water use inside and outside of the home, at school, in the
community, in business and industry, in agriculture, and in recreation. As California
endures its fourth consecutive year of severe drought in 2015, we call on the Santa Ana
community to celebrate the importance of water and use it wisely. The principle of water
conservation in our daily lives is especially important in the challenging conditions we face
today. POSTER SPECIFICATIONS
Each of these selection criteria MUST be followed in order for the artwork to qualify for
judging by the City of Santa Ana.
1. Size: Artwork must be 12” high X 18” wide (Oversized, undersized or vertical artwork
WILL NOT BE eligible.)
2. Materials: Artwork must be drawn on WHITE poster board or WHITE drawing paper.
Bold, bright, brilliant colors show up the best! You may use the following art media:
crayons, markers, pencils, paints, watercolors, chalks, cut paper or fabric.
3. Format: Artwork must have AT LEAST a one-inch white or blank border on all four
sides. This is a graphics and framing requirement.
4. Theme: “Every Drop Counts: Let’s Not Waste It” is the overall theme. A “short” water
message must be written on the artwork (but, not necessarily the words every drop
counts). The fewer words written the better. Remember, words must be spelled
correctly! Posters with misspelled words will not be selected.
5. Subject: Artwork must depict various ways to conserve water or use water wisely. This
can include:
— inside or outside of the home
— in industries or businesses
— in agriculture; or
— in recreation
6. Originality: Artwork must be ORIGINAL (no traced, trademarked, or copyrighted
characters and slogans, i.e. Snoopy, Sponge Bob, Dora the Explorer, etc.) The City of
Santa Ana reserves the right to question or disqualify any artwork that is clearly not the
work of the youth based on their age and grade level.
