Artistic high school students from the Third District were honored last weekend in Sylacauga, as Congressman Mike Rogers announced the winners of the 2016 Third District Congressional Art Competition.

Keanu McMurrey, a student at Pell City High School, took First Place for his photograph titled “Natures Drink.” McMurrey came in first place this year out of over 90 contestants.

McMurrey’s artwork will be displayed for one year in the walkway leading to the U.S. Capitol. All artwork submitted for the contest was on view at the Comer Museum in Sylacauga.
