District 30 High School Students: Let Your Art Be Seen By the World...

Sponsored by the Congressional Arts Caucus, and known in recent years as "An Artistic Discovery," the Congressional Art Competition is open to high school students nationwide. Begun in 1982, the competition, based in congressional districts, provides the opportunity for Members of Congress to encourage and recognize the artistic talents of their young constituents. Since its inception, more than 650,000 high school students nationwide have been involved in the program.

Each year, the art of one student per participating congressional district is selected to represent the district. The culmination of the competition is the yearlong display of winning artwork in the Cannon House Office Building tunnel as well as on the House of Representatives' website.

This event is open to all high school residing in the 30th Congressional District. Create an original piece of artwork and submit with a completed Student Release Form to Congresswoman Eddie Bernice Johnson’s District office.
