About the Exhibition
U.S. Rep. Cori Bush is proud to sponsor the 2024 Congressional Art Competition, honoring the inspiring work created by young artists in Missouri's 1st Congressional District. Each spring, members of Congress honor high school students from across the country through this visual art competition. Since the competition began, more than 650,000 high school students have participated. Now in its 24th year, the Artistic Discovery Contest showcases the talents of high school area students. This year's optional theme is "INSPIRE STL." Every student who enters will receive a recognition certificate, and their artwork will be featured in an exhibit at the Saint Louis University Museum of Art. A panel of local artists will judge all entries and select one first-place winner, followed by a second-place winner, a third-place winner, and two honorable mentions. They will also award the So St. Louis Award to the student whose work most closely matches this year's theme.
The first-place winner receives two roundtrip airfare tickets to attend a ceremony in Washington, D.C. The winning entry from each congressional district is displayed in the U.S. Capitol for one year.
