Congressional Art Competition
Apply for The 2025 Congressional Art Competition for a Chance to Represent California in Congress!
Each spring, the Congressional Institute sponsors a nationwide high school visual art competition to recognize and encourage artistic talent throughout the nation. Since the competition began in 1982, more than 650,000 high school students have participated in representing all congressional districts.
I am proud to have the opportunity to select a new student to represent California’s 35th Congressional District, which includes Chino, Montclair, Ontario, Pomona, and parts of Chino Hills, Eastvale, Fontana, Rancho Cucamonga, and Upland. The culmination of the competition will be the year-long display of the winning artwork in the U.S. Capitol Complex. You do not need to be an art student to enter or to win. There is no fee to enter or participate.
