The Office of Congressman Mario Díaz-Balart hosted the 2025 Congressional Art Competition at the Mary Collins Community Center in Miami Lakes. The event showcased 175 original artworks and attracted around 200 attendees, including students, teachers, principals, and local leaders.

The competition is part of a nationwide initiative sponsored by members of the U.S. House of Representatives each spring. Known as the Artistic Discovery Contest, it aims to recognize and encourage artistic talent across the nation and within individual congressional districts.

“I’ve been hosting the Congressional Art Competition for over 20 years, and each year, I am inspired by the remarkable talent and creativity from students in our community. This year was our best yet, with so many outstanding art pieces. I am truly amazed by the young, exceptional talent we have in Florida’s 26th Congressional District,” said Congressman Mario Díaz-Balart.
