I. Program Overview Art Shipping and Processing The Art as a Gift Your students are sending their art to their partner class as a gift and will not be getting it back. Therefore, you may want to reproduce your class’ art before sending it to us, for use in your own future exhibits. • All art pieces need to have a fully completed Artist Description Sheet (ADS) with a photograph attached to the art piece. All (ADS) must include your program ID#. • Please include the Packing List (located on Page 9) with your class’ art collection. • Allow 7 days for the package to reach our office at: Mathews Park, 303 West Avenue, Norwalk, CT 06850 USA • If you are an international partner who needs financial assistance to cover shipping costs, please contact us well before the deadline. We will provide you with a DHL number. We review and process all the pieces, including the Artist Description Sheets. At least one piece from each class for this year’s online and/ or live International Children’s Art Exhibits. High quality reproductions of the selected pieces and the originals (all with ADS) are then shipped to the partner class. Important Note The pieces we select for the International Children’s Art Exhibit and other applications become the property of Creative Connections. We use these pieces for a range of educational purposes, including “live” and website exhibitions, classroom workshops and for public relations purposes. We may also use reproductions of the pieces to share with art educators and young artists around the world and in other ways to support Creative Connections’ mission of providing cultural education programs to the world’s children in the years ahead.
