CALL FOR ARTISTS

Goshen’s Storm drain art project seeks to raise awareness about the connection between storm drains, urban stormwater runoff and pollution in our waterways.

Over the years, the Stormwater Department recruits local artists to paint murals to bring awareness to our local storm drains. This year, the City once again invites artists to participate in this community project.
