For nearly 30 years, Keep Collier Beautiful has been working to reduce litter and debris through education and outreach projects. One of our favorite projects has been a partnership with Collier County Solid and Hazardous Waste Management Department to produce an annual calendar that features artwork from local students.
This year, there were more than 1,000 entries from students in elementary, middle and high schools throughout Collier County. It was a tough vote, but judges selected the top 14 winning entries and 12 runners up. The winning artwork will be featured in the 2023 calendars.
