The 2013 Congressional Art Competition is a nation-wide high school art competition sponsored by the Congressional Institute.  Members of the U.S. House of Representatives conduct the competition within their respective districts and the contest is open to all high school students.

The winning entry from each Congressional District across the United States will be displayed for one year in the Cannon Tunnel of the U.S. Capitol.  The winning student from each district will be invited, along with one guest, to the unveiling of the exhibit and a reception in Washington, D.C. in June 2013, and will be provided two round-trip airline tickets for the occasion.

The 2012 contest winners may be viewed on the U.S. House Congressional Art Competition website.  Please refer to the competition guidelines and student release form below when considering the competition.
