Better Know A President! 8 1/2 min video clip		Better Know A President! Curious to learn more about our political system and the leaders of our country, 15 year old Corrina Ulrich proposed this project for TAP: Better Know A President! Over the course of the 2006-07 school year, 25 students and parents of The Art Place volunteered to create an animated portrait of each President of the United States. Each drawing took at least two hours and some required six hours to make! Our hope is to inspire you to discover more about the Presidents of our country and do your own research to understand how truly fascinating they are!
