“Each year I enjoy hosting this competition, and I’m always impressed with the artistic talent of students across Kentucky’s Second District,” he said.
Each spring, participating members of Congress host the Congressional Art Competition in their respective districts. The artwork of students from Kentucky’s Second District are judged by an independent and local panel of art professors from colleges and universities.
The overall winner’s artwork from Kentucky’s Second District and other districts and territories will be featured in the U.S. Capitol Building. The second and third place overall winners’ artwork will be displayed in Congressman Guthrie’s Bowling Green District office.

All students’ submitted artwork who abide by the rules and regulations will be posted to Congressman Guthrie’s official Facebook page for the public to vote on between April 14-18, 2025. The “Facebook Favorite” winner’s artwork will be displayed in Congressman Guthrie’s Bowling Green District office.
The winners of the art competition will be announced at a reception hosted by the Congressman in April.
