Abstract:
The Wandering Eye is a Web site that showcases art and writing contributed by high school and college students as well as professionals from all over the country. By building alliances with galleries, publishing houses, and universities, high school students have produced a globally accessible publication featuring works created by the whole continuum of creative artists. Attendees are treated to a multimedia tour of the site, and interested teachers receive handouts of copyright-sensitive submission guidelines, student-authored press releases, and sample letters to galleries and publishers.
