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 Georgia offices. The first-place art piece will be displayed for one year in the U.S. Capitol, with runners-up displayed in Congresswoman McBath’s Washington office and district office. The competition is open to all high school students in the Sixth District. 

The 2025 Congressional Art Competition (CAC) has concluded. Click here to view the press release announcing this year's winning student artwork. Our office will keep all students and teachers updated on key dates and deadlines for the 2026 competition soon. The 2026 competition will launch in early January and will conclude by the end of the school year.
