WASHINGTON, D.C. — Today, Congressman Tim Moore (NC-14) announced the opening of submissions for the 2026 Congressional Art Competition and invited high school students across North Carolina’s 14th Congressional District.

Each year, the competition highlights the creativity and talent of high school students from across the country. The winning artwork from North Carolina’s 14th District will be displayed in the United States Capitol alongside pieces from congressional districts nationwide, and the second and third place pieces will be displayed in the Congressman’s Washington, D.C. office.

“The Congressional Art Competition is a special opportunity for students across our district to showcase their creativity and talent,” said Congressman Moore. “As I witnessed in last year’s competition, we have so many gifted young artists in our district, and I encourage every eligible student to take part in this competition. It’s always inspiring to see the perspective our young people bring through their artwork.”

The submission deadline for the 2026 Congressional Art Competition is Friday, April 24, 2026, at 5:00 p.m. Students are encouraged to carefully review the competition guidelines before submitting their artwork to ensure it meets eligibility and submission requirements.
