Roll Out the Barrels is an annual event - typically held in May - that raises awareness of stormwater runoff, water pollution, and water conservation, all while promoting local artists and supporting environmental education. Due to staffing changes in the Stormwater Management Program, there will not be a Roll Out the Barrels event held in 2022.
Local artists turn ordinary, 55-gallon rain barrels into beautiful pieces of functional art to be auctioned off in support of the Athens Green School Program , an initiative to ensure environmental education is taught in the classroom. Since the first event in 2011, Roll Out the Barrels has raised over $30,000 for local artists and environmental education.
