Each spring, the U.S. House of Representatives hosts the National Congressional Art Competition. The Artistic Discovery Contest is an opportunity to recognize the artistic talent in the nation, and in our congressional district. The competition is open to high school students (grades 9 – 12) who reside in the Illinois 11th Congressional District or who are eligible to attend high school in that district. The second and third place winners will have their artwork displayed in our DC and District congressional offices.

This year the reception is coming to Water Street Studios! We’re excited to be a part of this program and look forward to hosting the art, the artists and their families!
