Louie Gohmert (TX-01) hosted a reception to honor the participants and announced the winners of the 2014 Congressional Art Competition on Sunday, December 8, 2013, in Marshall, Texas. He released the following statement regarding the outstanding art pieces submitted this year: “This weekend, it was exciting to see all the creativity and skill from the First Congressional District of Texas displayed at the Michelson Museum of Art. Throughout history, art and its expression have always been vital to our culture. Personally, with one of my daughters being an artist, art has played a significant role in my family’s life. Hosting this competition, has allowed me to see the importance of fine art in our children’s lives. After the winning piece is displayed in our great U.S. Capitol, the rest of the nation will also see the amazing talent that the young adults from east Texas possess.” 2014 Congressional Art Winners: First Place: Matthew McGehee Bishop T K Gorman Regional Catholic High School “RESTING HANDS” Second Place: Isabella Walters Hallsville High School “LOST TREASURE” Third Place: Alexandria Woodridge Hallsville High School “BUFFALO” Honorable Mention: Claudia McMillan Henderson High School “VIBRANT BOVID” Honorable Mention: Kylie Stinson Grace Community School “TINKERBELL AND CAPTAIN HOOK” Honorable Mention: Rachel Gibson Spring Hill High School “UNTITLED” The annual competition is open to high school students across the district.
