LSHS student wins My District, My Minnesota art program
Lakeville South High School 11th grade student Myles Miller recently won the My District, My Minnesota art program for Senate District 38 with his photography piece titled Hiraeth. “Hiraeth” is a Welsh noun that roughly translates to, “a spiritual longing for a home which maybe never was.”
In the My District, My Minnesota art program, each senator chooses a submitted artwork they feel best represents their district. Miller’s photography will be on display at the Minnesota Senate Building through the remainder of the year.
