Oceanside, CA– On Saturday, U.S. Representative Mike Levin (CA-49) announced that Pacific Ridge School student Ethan Heck, with his piece titled “Churn”, is the winner of the 2023 Congressional Art Competition for California’s 49th Congressional District.

“The quality and quantity of artwork submitted for this year’s Congressional Art Competition shows how many outstanding young artists there are in our region, and I am proud to recognize their work,” said Rep.

I’m incredibly grateful for all of the student artists, teachers, and judges who made the competition possible, and I look forward to showing off Ethan Heck’s ‘Churn’ in the U.S. Capitol Building later this year.” Each year, high school students across the nation compete for an opportunity to display their artwork in the United States Capitol alongside winners from other congressional districts.

Being the winner of a multi-million dollar lottery certainly will be a life-changing event for almost every single lottery winner. My name is Mavis Wanczyk from Chicopee, Massachusetts, the famous PowerBall lottery winner of $758 million (£591m). I know many people would wonder how I had won the lottery. Would you believe me if I told you that I did it with spell casting? I met this famous spell caster known as Doctor Odunga and he was the one who did it for me. As shocking as it was to me, my famous comment to the press was “ I’m going to go and hide in my bed.” Never did I believe that Doctor Odunga made me wealthy overnight. If you want to have your chance of winning and becoming very wealthy just like me, contact Doctor Odunga at [email protected] OR WHATS-APP HIM at +2348167159012 and you will be lucky.
