Permission to Publish Student Work on the Web

 

Dear Parents/Legal Guardians,

 

With the support of the Local School District, I am seeking permission to publish your child’s excellent art work on the internet.

 It will be displayed for a reasonable time in the Art Department section of the local school district website. 

 

Your child maintains all rights to their work.  For privacy rights, they will be identified by first name and last initial only. 

You and your child will be notified when the posting will occur.  I will only publish work the student agrees to.  

Thank you,

Ms. Moser, art teacher

Five Great Places to Publish Student Art and Creative Projects on the Web

 

 

Artsonia.

 With 100 countries and 3,000 schools already participating, this is an excellent site for teachers, parents, and students to learn how to create entire on-line galleries of artwork for a child, a classroom, or an entire school.  It’s an easy site to navigate with well written and bulleted instructions.  Parents and fans can order gifts with the child’s artwork on it.

Environmental Art and Poetry Gallery.  This wonderful site, established by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences allows students to submit work that reflects their passion for environmental issues.  It has links to other great sites involving student artwork and the planet.

Cyber Kids.  

This is a great site for younger kids.  They can submit artwork as well as poetry and prose.  Click on the ‘Creative Works’section to view featured work and be amazed at the talent!  I love that it is international in scope, so kids in your classroom can see what others around the world are producing.  This month features a talented young artist from Azerbaijan!

Jupiter Sky.

 This is a simple, classy place for high school and university students to submit artwork, photography, music and writing.  Click on the ‘submit work’ section for easy and thorough instructions.  It also has book, art, and music reviews suitable for young people.

Stapleless Book.  What a great idea for an internet art lesson combining technology, writing, and art!  This is a simple, easy to follow site that allows you to create your own book, using text and leaving space for artwork.  Then print it out and Voila`. Instantly publish a creative student work.

International Child Art Foundation.

This is a wonderful resource for children and the arts.  The organization sponsors many international art competitions, exhibits, and collaborative programs to help promote peaceful pursuits.  A current contest theme is ‘Utopia.’  Participants will have their art exhibited alongside famous artists in a museum in Germany, Haus der Kunst.
