UNICEF: Ambassador Lucy Liu collaborates with young artists

MOSCOW, Russia, 25 February 2007 -- Lucy Liu is a woman of many talents. The world-famous actress and US Fund for UNICEF National Ambassador is also a musician, a martial artist and, of course, a pre-eminent advocate for children. Last week in Moscow, she demonstrated her artistic skills as well, during a visit to 'Maria's Children,' a unique art studio in the city's centre.

Maria's Children is run by artist Maria Yeliseeva and has been a second home to thousands of children over the past 14 years. In a country where nearly 200,000 children live in institutions providing the minimum of custodial care, the studio is a beacon of hope.
