OnDesign International Working Forum

It is something to be able to paint a particular picture, or to carve a statute, and so to make a few objects beautiful; but it is far more glorious to carve and paint the very atmosphere and medium through which we look…To affect the quality of the day—that is the highest of arts.
Henry David Thoreau

The new Global Collaborative OnDesign for Children, a Working Forum of the World Forum Foundation, is happy to invite early educators, architects, designers and others from around the world to join our international Working Forum this June, in Berkeley, California.
