Congressional art competition open to submissions
U.S. Rep. Mike Kelly, R-16th, announced the opening of the 2024 Congressional Art Competition on Thursday, Feb. 22. The competition is open to high school students in Erie, Crawford, Mercer, Lawrence and Butler counties, plus a portion of Venango County.
"The Congressional Art Competition is a great opportunity for students to showcase their talents and have their work displayed in the halls of the U.S. Capitol," Kelly said. "We have so many wonderful and talented students across our Congressional district. I look forward to seeing all of the submissions. I encourage everyone who is interested to participate."
Artwork must be submitted to one of Kelly's district offices in Erie, Sharon or Butler by April 5. An awards ceremony for this year's winners is scheduled for May 3 with a location and time to be determined.
