Dear Friend,

I am excited to share that the 2025 Congressional Art Competition is now open! 

This year, I’m excited to invite high school students from the Antelope Valley, Santa Clarita Valley, and San Fernando Valley to submit their artwork to be displayed in the United States Capitol. The winner of the competition will also have the opportunity to come to Washington, D.C. for an awards ceremony. 

If you know a high school student in our district who loves making art and being creative, I encourage you to share this opportunity with them! I can’t wait to see what our students come up with.

You can see the full list of requirements and guidelines here.

To participate in the competition, send a completed Student Release Form and a scanned photo of your artwork to Art.CompCA27@mail.house.gov by April 18th.

If you have any questions about the competition, please visit my website.

It’s an honor to serve California’s 27th District,

Rep. George Whitesides
U.S. House of Representatives
