The California Arts Council created self-print California Arts Day cards so arts lovers can spread the word. There's a generic Arts Day card, as well as a series of seven discipline-specific cards for kids of all ages. Get them signed and in the mail before California Arts Day on Friday, October 2. Also available: an Arts Day game and suggested web links and tools to enhance individual creativity. SEE CARDS. SEE ARTS DAY PAGES.
