Wilson Co-Chairs the 2016 Congressional Art Competition

Today, Congressman Joe Wilson (SC-02) co-chaired the 2016 Congressional Art Competition Reception in Washington, D.C.

“For 35 years, this competition has inspired many young people in their love of art. I was grateful to bring local artist Yvonne Kinney, from North Augusta, to Washington to have her encourage the students in their work and highlight the importance of giving back to your community,” Wilson said.

“Congratulations to Mary Aufuldish from Cardinal Newman High School in the Midlands on her winning piece, America the Beautiful. I am humbled to represent all of the young talent from the Second Congressional District, and I wish you continued success.”

Congressman Joe Wilson served as the Republican Co-Chair for the 2016 Congressional Art Competition (CAC). He is the first member of the South Carolina delegation to hold the honor.
