Keep Lee County Beautiful recently announced its new “Leave the Scene Clean” art contest.

Open to K-12, students are to visualize a correct environmental action and transfer that mental picture into a work of art. Possible ways of expanding on the theme could include: litter prevention, clean-up campaigns, beautification efforts such as landscaping and tree planting, protecting the environment, and recycling.

For the contest, the four overall winning illustrations will be enlarged and appear on the side of a Lee County Waste Pro truck and also printed on reusable tote bags. The overall winning and honorable mention artwork will be on display at the Lovers Key State Park Discovery Center in April in honor of Earth month. All winners will also receive a certificate and prize pack.

The deadline for entries is Dec. 1.

The winners will be announced by mid-January.
