Lapeer East High School art students honored for work at Congressional Art Show

Two Lapeer East High School art students placed in the Congressional Art Competition and will have their art displayed in the office of Congresswoman Candice S. Miller.

Nearly 100 pieces of art were judged in the competition. Lapeer East senior Steven Hoffa, a student of Mrs. Debbie Helbig, won second place and junior Patrick Robinson, a student of Mrs. Joann Swomley, won third place in the competition.

Steven’s Chine Colle print will be displayed in the Washington, D.C. office of Congresswoman Miller. Patrick’s artwork will hang in the Congresswoman’s District Office lobby.

Both students will receive Certificates of Congressional Recognition for their achievements.
