2025 NPWW Theme

APWA is proud to announce the theme "People, Purpose, Presence" for the 2025 National Public Works Week poster. Meeting the needs of people is what gives public works its sense of purpose. Public works professionals are ever present, working in the background to advance quality of life for all.

The "People, Purpose, Presence" theme highlights how public works makes communities safer, more vibrant, and a better place to live. Whether serving as first responders, responding to electricity outages, providing regular waste pickup, or making roads and sidewalks passable after a winter weather event, public works is always there when people need them.

About the Artist: Jones and Co.

Capturing the spirit of the small, specialist shops of yesteryear, where a warm welcome and honest work ethic were the order of the day, Jones and Co. is a family-run studio based in Cape Town, South Africa. There, everyone plays a part – Dylan illustrates, his wife, Heike, takes care of production, and their kids, Anna-Rose and Sophie-Mae, provide inspiration as they relish the simple joys of childhood. It’s in this environment, between the ebb and flow of everyday family life that Jones and Co. creates and craft their passion – character design, editorial and all forms of vector illustration.
