Montana Congressman Denny Rehberg announced this week that Libby High School senior Paige Ward won Montana’s Congressional Art Competition for 2010. Paige’s photograph, “Silent Helper,” will now be on display for a one year in the Cannon Tunnel, a pedestrian walkway that leads to the U.S. Capitol.
Rehberg said in a statement:
“With this year’s batch of exceptional artwork from around Montana, picking a winner was harder than ever. Hosting the Congressional Art Contest is a pleasure to judge each year. I look forward to seeing Paige’s beautiful picture on the walls of the Cannon Tunnel.”
Another northwest Montana student, Whitefish High School senior Katie McGunagle, was also recognized for her oil painting, “At Water’s Edge.”
Congratulations, Paige and Katie.
