U.S. Rep. Lois Capps (D-Santa Barbara) played host to Mission College Preparatory High School junior Jenna Skiff on Capitol Hill on June 24. Skiff’s the winner of the 2015 Congressional Art Competition for Capps’ district. She attended a celebratory lunch reception and viewed the art show at the Capitol, where the teen from Cayucos also met with Capps.
“Each year, I am so inspired by the many young artists along the Central Coast, and this year is no different,” Capps said in a release. “It was wonderful to meet Jenna, and I am proud her work will be displayed on Capitol Hill. She is a talented young artist, and her piece will remind me of the beauty of California every day as I walk to and from the Capitol over the next year.”
