Public Health Week 2026 - Art Contest Winners!
This year, we invited residents of Lynn to answer the question: “What does public health look like to you?” and the responses were inspiring.
Congratulations to our three winners: Javian, Reagan, and Santiago! 🏆 Their artwork beautifully captures the importance of health and community in Lynn.
You’ll be seeing their designs featured on limited-edition Lynn Public Health giveaways, including stickers and pins, at upcoming events, so keep an eye out!
Thank you to everyone who participated and helped bring public health to life through art.💙🎨
