| Calling all artists: now is the time to get your entries ready for the 2024 Congressional High School Art Competition!
Each spring, Congresswoman Slotkin is proud to sponsor this high school arts competition along with her colleagues in the House of Representatives.

The second-place winner will have their art hung in Congresswoman Slotkin’s Washington D.C. office for one year, and the third-place winner will have their art hung in Congresswoman Slotkin’s Lansing office.
