Congressman Blaine Luetkemeyer (MO-03) announced details for the 2019 Congressional Art Competition. Each year, the Congressional Art Competition provides an opportunity for high school artists from the third district of Missouri to demonstrate their talents.

“I have been blown away by the immense talent exhibited by local high school artists from across the district,” said Congressman Luetkemeyer. “Students from our district have submitted diverse artwork over the last few years from drawings, to paintings, to photography depicting everything from symbols of American freedom to famous Missourians to the students themselves. I look forward to seeing this year’s unique submissions!”

All entries must be delivered to Congressman Luetkemeyer’s Jefferson City, Wentzville, or Washington, MO office by 5 p.m. on Tuesday, April 23^rd with the student release form attached to the back of the artwork. If you have any additional questions, please contact our Jefferson City office at (573) 635-7232.
