Atlanta, GA — Today, Representative Lucy McBath announced the launch of her 2025 Congressional Art Competition. The competition is open to high school students in Georgia’s Sixth Congressional District. The deadline for submissions is Monday, April 21st, 2025.
“It is my honor to launch my 7th Annual Congressional Art Competition,” said Rep. McBath. “It is so crucial that we continue to foster a love of the arts in our students, and I love showing off the talent of young people in our community! Best of luck to every competing student—I cannot wait to see what you create!”
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 across the nation. Winning artwork from Georgia's Sixth Congressional District (1st, 2nd, and 3rd place) will be eligible for display in the U.S. Capitol or in Rep. McBath's Washington and Atlanta offices.
One submission will be accepted per student, and all artwork must be delivered to the competing students’ art teacher on or prior to the April 21st deadline. A completed release form must accompany each student’s artwork, and all students must also complete a digital entry form on or prior to the April 21st deadline. The required release form, the digital entry form, and more guidelines for the competition can be found at mcbath.house.gov/art-competition.
