As I will not be returning as a member of the 113th Congress in 2013, students or teachers interested in the 2013 Congressional Art Competition should contact their new member of the U.S. House of Representatives beginning on January 3rd, 2013.
Each spring, a nation-wide high school arts competition is sponsored by the Members of the U.S. House of Representatives. The Congressional Art Competition is an opportunity to recognize and encourage the artistic talent in the nation, as well as in our congressional district.
The competition began in 1982 to provide an opportunity for members of Congress to encourage and recognize the artistic talents of their young constituents. Since then, over 650,000 high school students have been involved with the nationwide competition.
This year’s winners have been picked:
First place winner Amy Covel with “Regeneration”
Second place winner Sage Walters with “Distorted Grid”
Third place winner Anna Johansson with the “Lyin Fish”
