2026 EmpowerSV Art Competition Winners
The 2026 EmPowerSV Scholarship Competition invited students to create artwork that creatively showcases the contest theme, “Powering Communities.” This theme explores how choosing clean energy makes communities healthier and stronger, powering schools, homes, businesses, and all of the people who live and learn there. High school students were asked to design an art piece for display in SVCE’s future headquarters, and elementary school students were asked to design a sticker for use at community events
