By Staff Report-

FORT WAYNE - On Tuesday, U.S. Rep. Jim Banks (IN-03) announced his office is accepting submissions for the 2022 Congressional Art Competition.

This competition is open to all high school students in Indiana’s 3rd District. The artwork that wins the district competition will be displayed for one year in the U.S. Capitol. The winner will receive two tickets to Washington, D.C., from Southwest Airlines to attend a reception, the date of which is to be determined.  

The 2022 contest theme is Indiana. Indiana is the feeling of Hoosier satisfaction, devotion and attachment to the United States.

All submissions are due by April 22.

Participants should email their submission to [email protected] or schools can call the office to arrange for a pickup of entries before the deadline.

The email submission should contain the following attachments:

A clear, high-resolution picture of the students’ artwork uploaded in a PDF, JPEG or PNG file.

A scanned, signed copy of the student information and release form, complete to the best of the student’s ability and uploaded as a PDF.

1. Student’s name

2. School’s name

3. Art teacher’s name
