ALPHARETTA, GA - Rep. Rich McCormick hosted a reception to celebrate the young artists who entered the Congressional Art Competition, awarding first place to the watercolor painting "A Glimpse of Taiwan" by Mandy Bo Yang, a Junior at Lambert High School in Suwanee.
"Mandy's artwork is sure to charm visitors to the Capitol Building this year," said Rep. McCormick. "Her angles, architecture, and bright lanterns reveal a town that is bustling with energy and celebration, while its citizens are left to our imagination. I am very pleased that the young artists of Georgia's 6th District will be represented so well. I hope you will take a moment to appreciate her art and all the outstanding submissions we received this year."
The Congressional Art Competition is an opportunity to recognize and encourage young artistic talent across the nation, open to high school students in every congressional district in America. The winning artwork from each is displayed for one year in the U.S. Capitol Building. The winners are invited to a ceremony in Washington to celebrate their achievement and explore the nation's capital.
