About the Art Competition 

Each Spring, a nation-wide high school arts competition is sponsored by the Members of the U.S. House of Representatives.  The Artistic Discovery Contest is an opportunity to recognize and encourage artistic talents across the Nation.

The 5th District of Florida's Congressional Artistic Discovery Competition is open to all high school students in our District.  The winning artwork will be displayed for one year in the Cannon Tunnel of the U.S. Capitol.  The Washington Exhibit will include winning artwork from all participating districts.  All winning artwork will be featured by state on the House.gov Congressional Art Competition page: https://www.congressionalinstitute.org/how-to-enter/

A panel of judges will rank the submissions and choose one overall winner and other Honorable Mentions. 

The winner of the competition, the honorable mentions, their parents, art teachers, and principals will be invited to an Artistic Discovery Celebration hosted by Congressman John Rutherford.  The Congressman will present each participant with a Certificate of Special Congressional Recognition. 

If you would like more information on the annual Congressional District Art Competition, please contact the District Office at 904-831-5205.
