Testimonials of Educators

and Artists “ The WCF gives children from around the world an opportunity

to participate with and get to know many others of various
nationalities, races and religions, and to join together in a growing
friendship which manifests a model for World Peace.”

~ Professor Fred Jeremy Seligson, Founder of the Children’s Peace Train

“ It was a joy to attend the WCF, see familiar faces, make new friends,

view the cultural performances from around the world and meet the
young artists. I have attended the WCF from its inception in 1999
and found it to be culturally enriching, because of the variety of
art styles on display, as well as the innovative ideas it encourages in
the students. The WCF succeeded in the celebration of diversity, by
sharing love and togetherness, while building friendship, self-esteem
and creativity.”

~ Judy Layne-Banks, Artist, Art Teacher, Louisville, Kentucky

“ I want to congratulate the ICAF for a successful festival. It

was awesome! It is a very big inspiration for me and I am
more determined to do more in areas of children art, peace
and friendship. Nigeria will be well represented in the next
Olympiad and WCF.”

~ Ngozi Akande, Deputy Director,
National Council for Arts & Culture, Abuja, Nigeria
