C.I.A.O. - Children's Italian Art Outreach program
The art project for the Spring 2010 C.I.A.O. program was Ghiberti and the Italian Renaissance, where students from Mission Dolores and Bessie Carmichael school learned about perspective and used their imagination and creativity in recreating their own versions of the Ghiberti doors. Come to the Museo and see some of these delightful panels on display in the library. The C.I.A.O. program is partially underwritten by the Rosaria Haugland Foundation. |
