The 2026 Congressional Art Competition is officially underway, and my office is accepting submissions until Monday, March 2, 2026.
This year's theme is Reflecting on Alabama's 7th: Where History is Made.
Whether you submit a drawing, painting, photograph, or even a mixed-media design, I encourage you to use your imagination and let your creativity shine!
The winner will be chosen by a panel of expert judges and will receive free round-trip airfare for two to Washington D.C. to attend an official reception. Not only that, but their artwork will be proudly displayed in the U.S. Capitol Building for one whole year.
