Since 1979, Keep Knoxville Beautiful has presented Orchids Awards to Knoxville and Knox County buildings, public art, and outdoor spaces that beautify and elevate the local landscape. Keep Knoxville Beautiful is grateful for all those who work diligently to keep our city clean, green, and beautiful. We are excited to highlight some of the most impressive projects throughout April for Orchids 2022.  To all the architects, artitsts, developers, community members, gardeners, public service workers, and waste warriors picking up litter, we salute you!

For this year's Orchids Awards, please join us in this momentum and contribute towards the Keep Knoxville Beautiful Mural Fund, which will support Knoxville's next murals. Four generous sponsors will match your individual donations. Help us reach our goal of $10,000!
