Make Art Work

The arts are a powerful way to communicate—both on an intellectual and emotional level.

Background
Photographs, drawings, books, plays, speeches, and songs have influenced both people and governments to change their laws and policies. View online art galleries by young people at
Taking It Global.

Take Action
Think back over the thoughts and feelings you have had as you worked on the activities for this WebQuest. How can you express them through the arts? Create a poem, story, skit, song, collage, sketch, drawing, or photograph based on your feeling.

Or, use art to convey the feelings you imagine a child soldier might have.
