San Antonio, Texas – Today, local arts leaders, Brackenridge Principal Yesenia Cordova and art teacher Theresa Ybanez, joined a celebration for Maya Diaz, a junior at Brackenridge High School in San Antonio, who was the winner of U.S. Representative Lloyd Doggett's (D-San Antonio) annual Congressional High School Art Competition. Maya's original piece, Picture Perfect, featuring the reflection of light against objects that remind her of her parents, will hang in the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C. for a full year, providing her with national exposure as she represents San Antonio. Maya's passion for art extends past the classroom; she currently serves as the President of Brackenridge's Art Club and will be applying to colleges to pursue art.
