The Art Show is a venue for AACAP members and their spouses and children to display their artistic talent and will be placed in the Exhibit Hall. The Local Arrangements Committee should keep in mind as they are brainstorming ideas that they should be in touch with the AACAP Art Committee before details are finalized. In 2010, in addition to the submissions from members and their families, the Art Show also featured art work from students at a local school that specialized in educating children who have mild to moderate learning, language, and/or emotional issues. This added a personal and local touch to the show and contributed positively to the Art Show's appearance.
