The competition puts the artwork of South Dakota students in the U.S. Capitol building. The South Dakota Arts Council (SDAC) is now accepting entries on behalf of Rep. Johnson’s office. The contest is open to all South Dakota students in grades 9-12. The first-place winning entry will be displayed in the Cannon Tunnel of the United States Capitol for one year. The second-place winning entry will be displayed in Johnson’s Washington, D.C. office for one year. “There are so many talented and creative young artists in South Dakota, and through this program, we get the chance to celebrate that,” said Johnson. “Please share your artwork with us and help us showcase South Dakota in the halls of Congress.” Only digital submissions will be accepted. Students should send one email including a high-resolution JPEG image, along with a completed, typed PDF of the student release form to rebecca.cruse@state.sd.us. Submissions must be received by 11:59 PM CT, on Tuesday, April 15. Winners will be notified by Thursday, April 17, and will be responsible for shipping their artwork and student release forms to the SDAC office. The South Dakota Arts Council will have the artwork framed and will ship it to Washington, D.C. for the student. Please review the artwork specifications, guidelines, and instructions before submitting and download the student release form at https://artscouncil.sd.gov/CAC/index.aspx. The Congressional Art Competition is sponsored by the Congressional Institute and members of the U.S. House of Representatives. It’s an opportunity to recognize and encourage the artistic talent in the nation, as well as in each congressional district. The South Dakota Arts Council partners with Congressman Johnson’s office to carry out this initiative. The South Dakota Arts Council, an office of the South Dakota Department of Tourism, is a state agency serving South Dakotans and their communities through the arts with funding from the National Endowment for the Arts and the State of South Dakota. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-07T00:15:27Z |
