April 22, 2020 is the 50th anniversary of Earth Day.

UGA Office of Sustainability invites you to share through art how you are connecting with and appreciating the earth, people, or other living creatures during this time of uncertainty, and how this can inspire an even better future.

Any form of expression is accepted; music, dance, poetry, essay, video, other forms of visual art, etc. in three categories:

Appreciation: convey a sense of personal connection with and appreciation for the earth, people, or other living creatures.

Awareness: illuminate a current issue affecting the health and wellbeing of the earth, people, or other living creatures.

Action: conduct or inspire meaningful action to protect the earth, people, or other living creatures.

Publication and prizes awarded to selected works from each category, including memberships to Bulldog Bike Share, Collective Harvest, and Awesome Possum Curbside Compost!
