You certainly have identified a very important area of concern for the education and development of children.
Dr. Rebecca Gail Isbell, Director, Center of Excellence in Early Childhood Education East Tennessee University and author, "Creativity and the Arts of Young Children"
What you are doing reflects such a refreshingly integrated view of children's development -- a much-needed perspective in a time when children's growth and learning often seem to be approached in a very reductionistic, fragmented way.
Dr. Martha Farrell Erickson, Director, Center for Early Education & Development University of Minnesota
The positive message of peace and hope promised by the International Child Art Foundation is commendable and worthy of great recognition. (November 2, 2003)
Lt. Gen. Joseph Cosumano, Jr., Commanding General US Army Space and Missile Defense Command
I am grateful to organizations like the International Child Art Foundation that give us the opportunity to see the world
through the eyes of our nation’s young people.

We can all learn from the children of the world and realize that our next generation has the passion, creativity and empathy to shape the future and build a better world.
