Each spring, the U.S. House of Representatives hosts its art competition called "An Artistic Discovery." The competition is open to amateur artists residing within the 36th Congressional District and currently attending high school.
Submissions can either be of the "fine art" or "photography" category. The overall winner receives a cash prize and trip to Washington, D.C. to witness the summer unveiling of their piece in the United States Capitol. Top-finishers also receive cash prizes.
