All children are artists.

The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up.-

Pablo Picasso

I cannot do without something

greater than I, something that is my life -- the power to create. -

Vincent van Gogh

To see we must forget the name of the thing we are looking at. -

Claude Monet


A few things students can learn from art education:

  • The arts teach kids to be more tolerant and open.

  • The arts allow kids to express themselves creatively.

  • The arts promote individuality, bolster self-confidence, and improve overall academic performance.

The arts can help troubled youth, providing an alternative to delinquent behavior and truancy while providing an improved attitude towards school.
