Hensarling Announces 2018 Congressional Art Competition

WASHINGTON–Congressman Jeb Hensarling (TX-5) is inviting high school students across the 5th Congressional District to participate in the 2018 Congressional Art Competition.

“Each year, this exciting competition provides Members of Congress the opportunity to showcase the artistic talent of high school students within their districts, thereby acknowledging our nation’s gifted young artists,” said Congressman Hensarling. “I am pleased to announce that the Fifth Congressional District is once again participating in the competition and I look forward to seeing the artwork that our talented students submit.”

As in years past, the winning entry from each congressional district will be displayed in a special exhibit located in a corridor of the U.S. Capitol building. The winning student and guest will be invited to attend a special reception unveiling the artwork in Washington, D.C.
