“This year’s competition was very special because, for the first time since 2019, we were able to host this year’s participants and their artwork at an art gallery in our beautiful district. Every year I’m blown away by the artistic talent that exists in Georgia’s 11th Congressional District, and this year was no different. The joy and excitement this competition brings to our students, parents, and teachers is inspiring, and I’m proud of this year’s winners and contestants.”

Congressman Loudermilk recently hosted the 2023 participants, and their artwork, at the The Downtown Gallery in Cartersville. The competition featured thirty-two pieces of art from eight different schools, and the winning artwork was determined by an independent panel of judges.
