> Dear Fariel,

> I am the executive director of PapaInk, the International
> Children's Art Archive. As part of our non-profit mission, we are
> building a digital collection of professional artists' childhood
> artwork. The project, When They Were Children, aims to preserve
> artists' personal and collective histories, and to impart a
> creative legacy to the rising generation of artists.
>
> Our first annual call for artists' childhood art is underway, and
> extends through September 30th. We would be very pleased to review
> selections from your own childhood and teenage art for online
> archival display within the When They Were Children collection.

> PapaInk, the International Children's Art Archive, is a non-profit
> organization dedicated to collecting and preserving children's art
> and reinjecting children's creative spirit into human discourse.
> Our archival work highlights the socially critical efforts of
> organizations and individuals who enable children's artistic
> undertakings. PapaInk's world historical archive of children's art
> brings together and professionally presents the children's art
> holdings of organizations such as the UN, SOS Children's Village
> and the Jewish Museum in Prague. Fueled by a largely volunteer
> staff of iCurators, PapaInk's archive consists of a growing
> collection of historically significant children's art (e.g., from
> WWI, WWII, the Spanish Civil War, the Rwandan Civil War) as well as
> artwork from contemporary children around the world and the
> childhood works of professional artists. PapaInk provides an open
> archive and no-cost archival services to organizations and
> individuals worldwide, enabling the set-up and building out of
> permanent galleries of children's art.
