Meet the Winner of the ICAW 2025 Poster Contest
This year’s ICAW 2025 Poster Contest winner is Abbie Sawyer from Athens, Georgia. Her entry was chosen from the hundreds of entries received from throughout the world (entries were received from 73 different countries).
Abbie is an artist, nature enthusiast, and Compost Education Specialist for the Athens-Clarke County Solid Waste Department.
Her poster design was carved out of linoleum, hand-printed, and digitized to add color and text. The top of the poster shows off the skyline of Athens, Georgia, with the green roof of City Hall visible in the top left corner.
When asked what ICAW and this year’s theme meant to her, she said, “Communities rely on organic recycling on all scales. Whether you compost garden scraps in a three-bin system or generate tons of compost in an industrial facility, you make a difference! It's time for us to embrace decay and rot on.”
