From a press release:
On behalf of VSA, The International Organization on Arts and Disability, I would like to invite students, teachers, and parents in Wyoming to take part in an exciting art program – All Kids Can CREATE!
All Kids Can CREATE is an opportunity for students, ages 5 to 15, to submit their artwork as part of a national art search that promotes equal arts opportunities for students of all abilities. Teachers or parents may submit their students’ artwork online, and all artwork submissions will become part of an online exhibition. Two artworks from each state, one artwork by a student with a disability and one artwork by a student without a disability, will be chosen to be part of a national touring exhibition that will open in Washington, D.C. in June, 2011. This call for art is also an opportunity for teachers to receive $1,500 for their classroom!
To learn more about this call for art, please visit www.artsonia.com/allkidscancreate. Here, teachers and parents may submit student’s artwork, read about this year’s theme, as well as learn more about VSA and CVS Caremark All Kids Can. A PDF or printed version of the program information is also available upon request. The deadline for submissions is Friday, February 4, 2011.
I hope you and others in the state of Wyoming will consider this amazing chance to exhibit your students’ work! Feel free to pass on this email and information to other colleagues that may be interested in participating. We want to have a great turn out with great art!
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.
Sincerely,

VSA is an affiliate of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts.
The Wyoming Arts Council believes that experiencing the arts should be accessible for all, including people with mental and/or physical disabilities, older adults, military/veterans, people living in institutions and those who lack access to the arts due to geographic isolation, cultural difference and economic hardship.
