Discharge
By participating to the AiA Art Pen Pal Program, I authorize the publication and reproduction of the poetry and the drawings (and possible other art forms used) elaborated by the children of my school (classroom), for the project Art in All of Us, including for future exhibitions and the website and all other means that will help promote AiA’s and children work. I understand that the ownership of the artwork is ceased together with the artwork I will send to the Pal School.
All the above mentioned material could be used for fundraising purposes for the programs of the non for profit organization Art in All of Us. Therefore, I commit to send to AiA a digital copy of the children artworks before sending it out to the Pal school, preferably in high resolution.
Ownership of the original artworks will be of the receiving Pal school.
(If you prefer the schools’ works not to be published please contact your AiA Pen Pal Manager).
