Water Art Invitational
The Water Art Invitational is a unique vehicle for raising awareness about the value of clean water and engaging students in environmental stewardship. The competition is one of the many ways the Service Authority partners with the Prince William County Schools and an excellent of example of why it was named their 2018 Community Partner of the Year.
