Congressional
Art Competition As a proud member of the Congressional Arts Caucus, I have the opportunity to participate in the Annual Congressional Art Competition. This contest provides a wonderful opportunity for our community to acknowledge our gifted young artists and to showcase the creativity of the talented students from the South and Central Coasts. Every spring, I invite high school students from the 23rd Congressional District to enter a piece of art work for the Congressional Art Competition. Once a winner is chosen, he or she is invited to Washington D.C. for a ceremony and his or her winning piece is proudly displayed in the Cannon Tunnel of the U.S. Capitol Building in Washington, DC for an entire year. This year’s winner is Sam Schildhauer who is a senior at Dos Pueblos High School. His oil painting is called “Goleta the Goodland” and will hang in the Capitol until Spring, 2009. |
