ARTS
OLYMPIAD
The flagship program of the International Child Art
Foundation, the Arts Olympiad, has grown since
1997 into the world’s largest school art program.
Through structured lesson plans that make connec-
tions between mind and body, the Arts Olympiad
inspires you to become an “artist-athlete” with a
creative mind and healthy body. This revised
self-image solidifies when you depict yourself as an
art-
ist-athlete playing your favorite sport.
You will see how the Arts Olympiad is organized in
a Long Island-New York school and internationally
in Nigeria, Argentina, Uganda, and Azerbaijan. You
will also meet an Arts Olympiad winner and view
the “My Favorite Sport” artwork that serves both
as mirrors and windows.
