CONTEST: Paint A Bucket. End Tobacco Litter – Closed
Paint a Bucket to End Cigarette LitterCalling all artists and everyone who wants to help end tobacco litter!
We are having a community contest to draw attention to the many 10-gallon buckets we are putting outside businesses to collect cigarette butts, by colorfully painting them with an ocean theme. Fish, whales, dolphins, otters, turtles, birds, crabs… all are affected by tobacco litter. It’s fun and easy to help, and you could win a cash prize! Children, adults, families and groups — as well as professional artists — are all encouraged to participate. Only 30 pots are available, so sign up now!
WE REACHED 30 ENTRIES,
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR PARTICIPATION.
The winners will be announced soon!
