29th Congressional District Arts Competition
An Artistic Discovery
The Congressional Arts Competition – An Artistic Discovery is an annual high school art competition. The goal of the program is to encourage and recognize the rich artistic talents of young Americans, and display their work in Washington, D.C.
Each year Congressman Schiff invites each high school in the 29th Congressional District to submit three entries representing their school. A blue-ribbon selection committee will then review all the entries from the 29th Congressional District to determine first, second and third place winners.
Congressman Schiff congratulates Grace Young, from Temple City High School, winner of the 2007 29th Congressional District Arts Competition and her teacher Mihee Kim. Grace's artwork will be on display in the U.S. Capitol for one year.
