HANCEVILLE — Congressman Robert Aderholt released the following statement to announce the winners of this year’s Fourth Congressional District Art Competition. The ceremony took place Monday morning at the Evelyn Burrow Center for the Fine and Performing Arts at Wallace State Community College. This year, all eight category winners are receiving scholarships to Wallace State Community College. The Best of Show winner is receiving a full, two-year scholarship. The other seven category winners will receive ¾ of a full scholarship.
“I am always amazed at the talent of our students in the 4th District,” said Congressman Aderholt. “We had 147 entries this year and every single one of them is better than anything I could attempt to do. We also had 25 schools participate, which is a record.
“I am so thankful to Wallace State President Dr. Vicki Karolewics for offering our winners scholarships this year. These scholarships can be used in any field of study at Wallace and can even be used for online classes. These scholarships will no doubt change lives for the better.”
