Experience the Magic of Mardi Gras At the Opening Night NAEA Reception in New Orleans! Wednesday, March 26, from 7 – 10 PM The sounds of jazz, blues and Zydeco. The aroma of Cajun and Creole cuisine. The sight of sensational larger-than-life floats and colorful costumes. It’s all part of the famous, festive celebration known as Carnival, showcased all year long at Mardi Gras World in New Orleans! This playful wonderland is the setting for Crayola’s opening night reception for all attendees of the 2008 National Art Education Association Convention. This year’s reception, themed “Happy 50th Birthday Crayola Crayon 64-count Box!” takes place on Wednesday, March 26, from 7 – 10 PM. Every year, Crayola hosts the opening of the convention and creates an atmosphere where attendees can tap into their “inner artist” while participating in hands-on activities with some of the latest Crayola products. Make-and-take projects will include activities specifically created for art educators from the new Crayola Dream-Makers guide “Principles of Art and Design” using Crayola Tempera paint, Slick Stix, Model Magic and Mixing Mediums, as well as new products on tap for 2008. “The event gives us the opportunity to personally say ‘thank you’ to art educators all over the country who inspire imagination and creativity in their students through the visual arts,” says Crayola Director of Education Nancy DeBellis. “It’s our hope that everyone will join us for a creative evening of Crayola-style hospitality in the carnival capital of the world!” Entertainment will include the chance to revel in a real Mardi Gras parade honoring the 2008 NAEA Board, complete with music, beads, carnival costumes, and floats. What better way to bring life back to the “Big Easy” and celebrate the beloved Crayola 64 Box’s 50th birthday! Refreshments will include a delicious dessert buffet with birthday-themed treats. Live music will provide a backdrop for this colorful, Crayola-inspired celebration. A cash bar will be available.

 New Orleans What is the “ship”?

The SHIP is an organization of companies that have made a commitment to serve the art education community through the manufacture, publication, and distribution of art materials and resources who exhibit at the National Art Education Association Convention. How Does The Ship Support Art Education? • The SHIP makes contributions to art education through the funding of several grants. Every year financial awards are presented to the winners and runners-up in the YAM (Youth Art Month) competition sponsored by The Council for Art Education, Inc. • The SHIP established the “SHIP Fund” grant for the National Art Education Foundation. • SHIP members sponsor the “Great SHIP Giveaway” where SHIP exhibitors donate materials for art teachers at the NAEA conference. How Can I Recognize A Ship Member? By anchoring the arts in education, SHIP members will be wearing the SHIP’s “anchor” on their badge as identification of membership. Please take a moment to find a SHIP member and thank them for their donations.
