\"Tyler<\/a><\/p>\n

Congratulations to Lauren Hoover, a Tyler School of Art undergraduate, who won the top prize for the medallion design competition! Lauren\u2019s Uncover the Green design recognizes the history and integrity of the City\u2019s existing infrastructure (our sewer pipes) and acknowledges our urban setting with a nod to the green path that we\u2019re on to clean up our creeks and rivers. If you look closely at Lauren\u2019s beautiful design, you\u2019ll see that she cleverly spelled \u201cWATER\u201d in the medallion. Design professionals, outreach experts and various government agency representatives participated in the selection process. Lauren also won the People\u2019s Choice Award, voted on by the participants\u2019 of Friday\u2019s Uncover the Green award ceremony<\/a> at the Fairmount Water Works.<\/span><\/p>\n

PWD\u2019s goal is to place the medallions next to green stormwater tools to help brand the new environmentally friendly stormwater management infrastructure in neighborhoods across the city. PWD also hopes that Lauren\u2019s design will influence future manhole covers. <\/span><\/p>\n

Special thanks to our partner \u2013 Mural Arts Program \u2013 in addition to our major sponsors, NextFab and Fleisher Art Memorial. <\/span><\/p>\n

Thank you, also, to our expert judges at Maskar Design, Cloud Gehshan Associates, Community Design Collaborative, The Public Workshop, Partnership for Delaware Estuary, Office of Arts, Culture & Creative Economy, Mayor\u2019s Office of Sustainability, Fairmount Water Works and the Philadelphia Water Department staff.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
