Congresswoman Lucille Roybal-Allard welcomed 19-year-old Jennifer Rosas of Bellflower to our nation’s capital to celebrate the opening of the Congressional Art Competition exhibit, "An Artistic Discovery." Jennifer (pictured left of center) won first place in the 13th Annual 34th Congressional District Student Art Competition chaired by Congresswoman Lucille Roybal-Allard (right of center). The Mayfair High School student’s water color and ball point pen drawing, titled “Embrace” (shown center) will be exhibited at the U.S. Capitol for one year. Jennifer received a trip for two to Washington, D.C. to attend the national exhibit opening. Jennifer was accompanied by her mother, Kathy Rosas (far right), her father, Alexander Rosas (far left), and her younger brother, Indran Rosas (second on left). Prior to the ceremony and reception honoring students from across the country, Congresswoman Roybal-Allard hosted lunch for the family in the Members dining room of the U.S. Capitol. They were also given a tour of the Capitol Building by a member of the congresswoman’s staff. A recent high school graduate, Jennifer said she plans to continue her education at Cerritos College in Norwalk, CA.
