Be part of a historic celebration of children's creativity and imagination.

The key festival objectives are:
- showcase children's creativity, imagination and talents

- introduce children to the power of their collective creativity
- harness children's imagination for positive social change
- promote the concept of "artist-athlete" as a symbol of healthy living
- demonstrate the benefits of integrating art, sport, science and technology
- build bonds of understanding and trust between American children and the world's children
- provide creative leadership training and connect current and future leaders
- provide Digital Media & Design Studio, design education and 21st century IT skills
You can support the festival and participate in it!
- If you live in the Washington Metropolitan Area, you can help local children host children from across America and around the world at the festival.
- If you live elsewhere in the United States, you can sponsor a child from a low-income family or a poor country to participate in the festival.
- If you live anywhere in the world, you can become a catalyst in this community by hosting an international children's art exhibition during the festival.
