All of America's children were affected by the horrific events of September 11, 2001. At such times of pain and tragedy, children often turn to art to express their deepest emotions, and so they did after 9/11. The New York University Child Study Center and the Museum of the City of New York have collaborated on this unusual book, which presents children's artwork created in response to 9/11. Seventy-five works by children 5-18 years old, all from the New York area, were selected for the book and accompanying juried exhibition, which is scheduled to open on September 11, 2002.Robin F. Goodman, a well-known child mental health expert, discusses the effects of the tragedy on children and their artistic responses to it. The book will feature personal essays by prominent New York artists, writers, historians, and civic and religious leaders; the children's commentary about their art and experiences is also included. The Day Our World Changed provides insight into what some of our nation's youngest citizens saw on that historic day and how they foresee the future of their city, their nation, and the global community at large.
