Summary: A traveling international wildlife art and poetry exhibit.
Description: Join the celebration of nature through the eyes of elementary students from around the world. "Beauty of the Beasts" is a global project inviting children to capture the grandeur and magnificence of animals indigenous to their areas through original artwork and poetry. The students' work will be compiled into a worldwide exhibit, and displayed at numerous galleries throughout the United States, the American Museum of Natural History, and the iEARN Annual Conference. All artwork must be the child's original masterpiece...a pure spontaneous view for the child's interpretation of the beauty and uniqueness of these marvelous creatures. All mediums accepted (no 3-D). Size restrictions: 12"x18" maximum. All poetry must be the child's original work. The display will provide a venue for children's eloquent expressions as each child contributes his/her own verse to nature's eternal poem. All poetry styles are acceptable. Children may participate in either art or poetry divisions, or are welcome to submit work in both. Please include the child's name, age, teacher's name, school address and email address.
