Representative Mike Garcia (CA-27) declared Alex Coons, a sophomore at Vasquez High School in Acton, the 27th District’s 2024 Congressional Art Competition winner.
A panel of independent judges chose Alex’s drawing, “Wings of Freedom,” which will be displayed in the halls of Congress in Washington, D.C.
“Alex’s art piece is a touching homage to our service members,” said Rep. Garcia. “I’m honored to hang it in the U.S. Capitol, where this amazing work from CA-27 will be seen every day by fellow constituents, Members of Congress, and visitors from around the world. Alex and her work, as well as every young artist who participated in this year’s competition, truly exemplifies the talent and patriotism that make our communities so special.”
Rep. Garcia also announced the second and third-place winners of the annual art competition. Emma Buliga’s “The Original Flight” and Yancheng Lin’s “Azure Path” will be proudly displayed in Rep. Garcia’s Washington, D.C. and Santa Clarita offices, respectively.
