Runner-up LaShawn Wise holds his photograph entitled “Covered by Country,” a portrait of a friend who’ll soon enter the military.
_______________________________ Highland High School student Lily Jean Wall has won the Congressional Art Competition for her piece entitled “Nikki.” Wall’s artwork will be on display in the U.S. Capitol building until June 2018, along with artwork selected from each Congressional District in the United States. Lily is entering her senior year at Highland High School and her artwork is a drawing of her art teacher, Mr. Nikki Kutansky, who has been one of her biggest influences growing up. Runner-up is LaShawn Wise for his piece entitled “Covered by Country.” Wise recently graduated from the Emerson Wirt Visual and Performing Arts Academy and his artwork is a digital
photograph of his friend who will soon be serving in the U.S. military. Each spring, the Congressional Institute sponsors a nationwide high school visual art competition to recognize and encourage artistic talent in the nation and in each congressional district. Since the Artistic Discovery competition began in 1982, more than 650,000 high school students have participated. Students submit entries to their representative’s office, and panels of district artists select the winning entries. Winners are recognized both in their district and at an annual awards ceremony in Washington, DC. The winning works are displayed for one
year at the U.S. Capitol.US Congressman Pete Visclosky, of the First District of Indiana, stated, “I congratulate Lily and LaShawn, and I thank all of the Northwest Indiana students who utilized their time and talents to participate in the 2017 Congressional Art Competition. It is heartening to see such creative expressions from our Northwest Indiana students, and I wish all of them the best in their continued academic and artistic studies.” For additional information on the Congressional Art Competition, visit your congressional representaive’s website, or visit www.house.gov/ content/educate/art_competition/.
