The next Congressional Art Contest is coming in the spring.
 Members of the U.S. House of Representatives annually recognize the creative spirit of American high school students in a nationwide art competition.
Each spring we have an art exhibition in Albuquerque for high school students in the First Congressional District of New Mexico. The winning entry is displayed in a corridor of the U.S. Capitol for one year.
Art is required to be two-dimensional, no larger than 32 inches by 32 inches framed, and within the following categories:
- Paintings (oil, acrylic, etc.)
- Drawings, watercolors, pastels
- Collages
- Prints (lithographs, silk-screens, etc.)
Your entry must be an original concept and may not violate U.S. Copyright Laws.
If you are interested, or know a young talented student who would like to participate, please contact my District Office at (505) 346-6781 for more information.
