The members of CSEA are art supervisors, heads of art schools. artists and art teachers.‘ The pa trons are firms anxious to give financial aid. CSEA began about five years ago under the chan- manship of Dr. C. D. Gaitskell, director of Art in the Ontario Department of Education, author of many books on child art, who also chaired the Bristol seminar on art education assembled by UN in 1952. It is affiliated with the International Society for Ed ucation through Art, and the Can- ada Arts Council.

The qualifications of art teachers is being carefully studied. The program of the convention was a most interesting one. Four different commissions sat to look into such things as: the role or art education in t-he Canadian community. There were address- es by such prominent people as Alan Jarvis, head of the Nation- al Gallery in Ottawa. There were expeditions to art galleries and museums, to art schools and pri- vate homes whose owners col- lect paintings. There were visits to the studios of prominent ‘ar- tists, and discussions with them. All in all, a most broadening experience for th 0 s e lucky e- nough to be able to attend. Other years similar conventions were held in Quebec City, and in Win- nipeg. This year Vancouver is the city that has been chosen.

Life in Canada” compiled by the Sur- vey and Research Committee of The Canadian Federation of Bus- mess and Professional ,Women’s ,Clu-bs, under the chairmanship of Miss Nazla L. Dane, Toronto.
