The winners were announced earlier this month by Rep. Chris Smith (NJ-4), the sponsor of the annual high school contest in the Fourth Congressional District for the past 20 years. The contest was held as part of a national competition organized by the Congressional Institute to recognize exceptional young artists in each district. The four Red Bank Regional High School students awarded were Kendall Walsh, Emily Dee, Kathryn Johnson and Sophia Giordano. While each winner will be mailed a ribbon and award certificate, all students who entered the contest will receive a congressional certificate in recognition of their work. "We had one of the highest number of entries ever in our second virtual art competition of high school artists in the Fourth Congressional District, who worked hard to create some amazing artwork," Smith said in a statement. "Congratulations to best-in-show winner, Samantha Nemergut, and to the competition's runners up and all the students who entered their work to make this year's show such as[a] success, including their talented art instructors. We are thankful for their participation and for sharing their artistic gifts." Here is the full list of winners from the Fourth Congressional District:
