November 15, 2009: Colin Macdonald Community School students share their artwork with the world!
Move Over Famous Artists! Colin Macdonald Community School artists are taking over the spotlight!  Louise Cervi, one of the school's Teachers, has teamed up with Artsonia, www.artsonia.com -- the world's largest online kid's art museum -- to display the students' artwork. 

Anyone can view the school gallery online at www.artsonia.com/schools/Colin3.
Visitors can browse the artwork in the school gallery by grade level, or by specific exhibits.  Colin Macdonald Community School students join thousands of students from over 100 countries whose artwork is showcased on Artsonia. "This program is a wonderful way to get parents and family members more involved in Art Education," said Louise Cervi.
All of Artsonia's one million pieces of artwork are viewable online, and any teacher or parent can create an online art gallery for their child or school. Artsonia provides several online features such as fan clubs and personal guestbooks, as a way for families to encourage the creativity and imaginations of their young artists.
Headquartered in Gurnee, Illinois, USA, Artsonia was established in 2000 as an online kid's art museum providing free, educational resources for kids, families and schools to create art projects. Since its inception, Artsonia continues to integrate technology in the classroom, develop multi-cultural understanding through art and increase family involvement in children's education.
