Congresswoman Lucy McBath announced the start of the 2022 Congressional Art Competition, her fourth art competition since taking office in 2019. The competition is open to high school students in Georgia’s Sixth Congressional District and the deadline for submissions will be Friday, April 22, 2022.
“Supporting and encouraging participation in the arts is so vital for our young people, which is why I am thrilled to launch this year’s Congressional Art Competition,” McBath said. “Each year, I am blown away by the talent and creativity of students from right here in our community. I look forward to seeing the incredible artwork from our local high schoolers, and I encourage all who may be interested to submit and be a part of this exciting competition.”
Each spring, a nationwide high school arts competition is hosted by the U.S. House of Representatives. The Congressional Art Competition is an opportunity to recognize and encourage the artistic talent of students in the Sixth Congressional District and across the nation. Winning artwork from the Sixth District Congressional Art Competition (1st, 2nd, and 3rd place) will be eligible for display in the U.S. Capitol or in one of Rep. McBath’s offices.
Submissions will be accepted by McBath’s office over the next two months and will only be accepted digitally at arts.mcbath@mail.house.gov. More information and the required release form for the competition can be accessed at https://mcbath.house.gov/
