BREVARD COUNTY • PALM BAY, FLORIDA– The City of Palm Bay Sustainability Advisory Board is hosting a contest to find the cover art for the City’s upcoming Sustainability Action Plan.

The Sustainability Advisory Board is looking for young artists to help them imagine what a sustainable Palm Bay looks like.

Sustainability means using limited resources responsibly so that future generations enjoy a healthy planet and have the water, energy, materials, and land needed to survive.

This may include conserving water or electricity, using wind- or solar-powered energy, recycling, avoiding food waste, and caring for the environment.

The City’s Sustainability Advisory Board will select the entry that they feel best illustrates sustainability in Palm Bay. The winning artwork will be featured on the front cover of the City of Palm Bay Sustainability Action Plan and the artist will be recognized at an upcoming Board Meeting.
