"Call to Artists: Arts Olympiad for Young Artists"

International Child Art Foundation
Washington, DC, USA United States of America

The International Child Art Foundation (ICAF) invites you to participate in its Third Arts Olympiad (2004-2008). The Arts Olympiad combines the empathy invoked and sustained by art with the team spirit instilled and fostered by sport in order to promote creativity, health and Olympic ideals. The worlds largest and most prestigious arts initiative for children aged 8 to 12, the Arts Olympiad commences with free lesson plans that lead to art competitions and culminates in a World Festival on the National Mall in Washington DC in 2007.

The Arts Olympiad Lesson Plans can be downloaded from http://olympiad.icaf.org

ICAFs Educational Partners include Americans for the Arts, the National Art Education Association, the Congressional Arts Caucus and UNESCO.
