“This is a great event where we get to recognize art students in our district for their great accomplishments,” Aderholt said.  “Sometimes it is not always well publicized but we hope this brings attention to the great artists who are among us here in our own congressional district.”

“I would also like to thank Wallace State Community College and Dr. Vicki Hawsey Karolewics for all of their help and the use of the beautiful Burrow Center for the Fine and Performing Arts.”

This year’s “Best of Show” winner was Cadley Jackson, a senior at Guntersville High School.  Her pencil drawing titled “Reflections on my Childhood” will hang for the next year inside the U.S. Capitol complex in Washington.  In addition to this honor, Ms. Jackson will also get to travel to Washington.  She is also receiving a scholarship from the Savannah College of Art and Design.

“I’m incredibly honored,” Jackson said. “It was a goal of mine to get “Best of Show” at Congressional District and I finally got it. I’m very blessed and happy to have received it today.”
