中華民國第40屆世界兒童畫展為提供兒童繪畫創作與觀賞的一個平臺，在參與的過程中，孩子們能沉浸在自由自在的遊戲文化中；以開放的心靈，透過畫作表現真我；並能打破語言、文字框架，自行創造出一個象徵性的情境，以掌握自己的內在欲望；並能在人際溝通上，逾越極大的藩籬。這就是畫展多年來，深受社會各界喜愛的主因。邀請關心、愛好兒童美育的人士，踴躍光臨參觀。
　
Taiwan’s 40th World School Children’s Art Exhibition offers children a platform for creating and appreciating paintings. In participating, children can be immersed in free, open, and playful culture. Using an open mind, they can express themselves through painting process, break the language and word boundary, create symbolic situation and master their inner desire. Meantime, they can overcome obstacles about social communication. These become the main reasons why such a kind of painting exhibition has become profoundly popular for many years. We welcome people, especially those who care about and feel interested in art education, to come to watch this exhibition.
