Fourteen local artists were given a water-saving mission: create a site-specific sculpture that makes water conservation sexy (or at least aesthetically pleasing).

The resulting works of art will be on display at the opening of H20: The Art of Water Conservation exhibition at The Water Conservation Garden in El Cajon from 10 a.m. to noon Saturday, May 7. The project is a result of the joint effort of the San Diego Fine Art Society, The Water Conservation Garden and was curated by Rebecca Ansert of Green Public Art.
