Congresswoman Fedorchak announces North Dakota winner of 2025 Congressional Art Competition

Washington, D.C. - Congresswoman Julie Fedorchak (R-ND) announced the winner of the 2025 Congressional Art Competition for North Dakota this week: Adelina Estrada, a student at Grand Forks Central High School. Her artwork, titled "Meruem," was selected by a panel of local judges who evaluated submissions based on creativity, originality, and technical skill. Adelina's piece captures a small sitting area in a local Grand Forks coffee shop called Urban Stampede-one of North Dakota's oldest coffee shops.

"Adelina's beautiful work captures a unique piece of North Dakota, a scene from one of our iconic coffee shops where people gather to visit," Fedorchak said. "She's a charming young woman with a bright future and I'm proud to have her work displayed here."
