Smith Announces 2018 Congressional Art Competition

Congressman Adrian Smith (R-NE) invites high school students in Nebraska’s Third District to submit their artwork for the 2018 Congressional Art Competition by Friday, March 9.

“The Congressional Art Competition is a great opportunity for young artists in the Third District to put their talents on display for visitors from across the country and around the world,” Smith said. “Each year, I look forward to showcasing students’ work and sharing their depictions of the Good Life we enjoy in Nebraska.”

The Nebraska Art Teachers Association is working with Smith to coordinate the competition. Official rules, guidelines, and submission forms are available on Congressman Smith’s website: AdrianSmith.house.gov/ArtCompetition.

The first-place artwork will be displayed in the U.S. Capitol alongside winning entries from across the country. Smith will display the runners-up in his Washington, D.C. and Third District offices.

The Congressional Institute annually sponsors the Congressional Art Competition for high school students from all fifty states, the District of Columbia, and U.S. territories.
