The Roseville Utilities Youth Art Contest is back for 2025 and we want you to show us our utility trucks through your eyes!

Using the theme “Roseville Utility Trucks in Action,” show us how utility trucks help keep Roseville clean, safe, and running smoothly! These powerful machines handle everything from picking up trash to fixing water lines and electrical systems, and now it's their time to shine.

Here are some ideas to help spark your creativity:

 

  • Power Poses
    Draw a utility truck as the star; bold, bright, and ready for action.
    Example: A garbage truck standing tall with its bin-lift raised against a glowing sunrise.

  • Team Effort
    Show two or more trucks working together to complete a task.
    Example: A vactor truck and an electric line truck parked side by side at a work site, hoses and buckets extended, ready to tackle the job.
  • In Action
    Illustrate a truck in motion, doing its everyday job.
    Example: An electric line truck with its boom arm raised, working near power lines.

 
Let your imagination roll! Show how these amazing trucks help power, clean, and protect Roseville every day.
