Please find attached information on a special issue of our CHILDART
magazine on the
theme, "Peace & Healing." (I didn't include the attachments. For more

We would appreciate your posting this information in your online
newsletter.
We are also interested in forming an alliance with Tappedin. The
International Child Art
Foundation (ICAF) is the nation's child art and creativity organization.
We serve as umbrella
to an expanding global network of individuals and insitutions concerned
about the 'creativity
risk' faced by children (especially 8-12 age group) and the need to
create a common bond
among the world's children.
We organize the children's "Arts Olympiad" every four years. Local and
national art
competition on the theme "me in the new millennium" have a deadline of
October 31, 2002.
The program culminates into the world's largest international children's
festival -- ChildArt & Creativity Festival -- traditionally held on the
National Mall in Washington, DC. The next
festival is planned for the summer of 2003. We would be delighted by
your organization's
participation in the festival, and its related activities, including a
workshop on children's
creativity.
We look forward to your response.
Sincerely,
