Congressman Mrvan stated, “I am proud to host the Congressional Art Competition in Indiana’s First Congressional District again this year to showcase the wonderful artistic talents of students across our region.  I encourage all interested high school students to participate in this unique opportunity to create a work of art to be showcased in the United States Capitol Building.”
