Louisiana’s Congressional Art winner visits U.S. Capitol

WASHINGTON, D.C. (KTAL/KMSS) –  This week Speaker of the House Mike Johnson, of Louisiana’s 4th congressional district, welcomed Louisiana’s 2025 Congressional Art Competition winner to the U.S. Capitol.

On Thursday, representatives from Speaker Johnson’s office shared photos of Grace Rougeau of Leesville, Louisiana visiting the United States Capitol during the 2025 Congressional Art Competition Celebration.

Rougeau won first place for her painting, “Craw-Fever”. The painting will hang in the U.S. Capitol for one year.

The Congressional Art Competition is a nationwide, visual art contest for high school students. One piece of artwork from each congressional district is chosen by a panel of judges to be displayed in the U.S. Capitol Building for one year.

Representatives from Speaker Johnson’s office say the second, third, and fourth place selections will also be displayed in Johnson’s congressional offices.
