Washington, D.C. – The Office of Congressman Frank Lucas (R-Okla.) has begun accepting submissions for the 2019 Congressional Art Competition. Each spring, a nationwide art competition is sponsored by the Members of the U.S. House of Representatives to recognize and encourage artistic talent in each congressional district. All high school students (public, private, or homeschooled) in Oklahoma’s Third Congressional District are eligible to participate.

“The artistic ability of Oklahoma’s Third Congressional District’s students is something to be amazed at. The Third District is home to a number of gifted young artists who deserve to have the opportunity to share their work with the rest of the country,” said Congressman Lucas. “It is my honor to once again be a host of the Congressional Art Competition. I look forward to recognizing the many artists of Western Oklahoma and ask that families and friends help spread the word.”

Those that are interested in participating can find all the information related to the 2019 Congressional Art Competition at /congressional-art-competition. Entrants must deliver their artwork to 10952 NW Expressway, Suite B, Yukon, OK 73099 by close of business on Friday, April 19, 2019.
