Hello Canadian Art Teachers,

I'd like to invite you to join the children's art project.
The project intends to create a sharing platform where children
from many school, countries and cultures could present their
drawings to each other ... and all of us on the internet.

A technical solution for such a platform is now in place at:
  http://redfrog.norconnect.no/~cag/

Please read the information below, visit the gallery
and consider participation,
Any ideas on changes, improvment or expansion of the project
are welcomed.

The Gallery - as it is now

  The gallery presents works of art by children from various
cultures and age groups. Works presented in the gallery come
from such countries/cultures as:  China, Croatia, Czech Republic,
Egypt, Hong Kong, Lebanon, Norway, Pakistan, Poland, Russia,
Scotland, South Africa, United Arab Emirates, USA, Western Sahara and 
more.
... and are created by children from 3 to 15 years old.

  The gallery is designed to facilitate sharing of drawings made
by children among all of us on the internet.

  Visitors can not only view the drawings that are already 
presented in the gallery but also present their own drawings.

  The collection can be viewed in selectable exhibitions
(by child's name, age, country, year, teacher, school, project)
or within preselected exhibitions dedicated to a child, school,
pupils of a teacher ...

  Drawings in "gif" or "jpeg" format can be presented in the gallery
DIRECTLY FROM A WEB-BROWSER within not more than 2-3 minutes
... and transfered drawings are visible immediately to all the visitors.
  When presenting a drawing, you transfer two images of your
drawing and create a description for the drawing. The description
may include links to your site and  - as a rule - contains
your e-mail address ... so that all those who would like to
contact you may do so.
  Children, teachers ... who present more then 5-10
drawings are invited to present themselves within their own
dedicated exhibitions. 

  Detailed information on how to present drawings in the gallery
and where to get help when your drawings require scanning
is available on the site.

The Gallery - Purpose

The gallery is a sharing facility open to any "citizen of the internet".
It's intended purpose is to:
  - offer exhibition space to children wishing to present their 
drawings.
  - create a platform where children, parents and teachers from 
different
    cultures and countries could meet each other.
  - create a platform where different children's art related projects
    and activities could meet, compare their work and eventually
    initiate cooperation.
  - create a resource that would give all of us the chance to percept
    reality through the eyes of children.
