Show archives for one category and childrens.

I´m looking into the codex for a way to show archives only from one category using the wp_get_archives tag, but looks like it cannot be possible.

My page have three main categories (blog, art, and audio), and each one have it own template to show posts and archives. I want to show on the sidebar of each of that three categories templates the montly archive list for that category and its childrens categories.

Is there a way to do that?
