We invite you to learn, create and have fun making art this fall at The Artery’s…

 
 
 

Why Art?

 

Art is essential to the development of our children. It builds creative thinkers and creative thinkers change the world.

Greater art education leads to fewer disciplinary problems, higher attendance, graduation rates and test scores.

 
 

Art is built into the foundation of culture. It enables us to see and understand other cultures. It bridges language barriers.

Art is a form of communication that challenges kids to express what they imagine.

 

Young people who engage in the arts are four times more likely than those without art education to participate in math and science fairs, to win awards for writing and to be recognized for high academic achievement.

Art Promotes:

Lifelong problem-solving skills

Motor skill development

Language skill development

Inventiveness

Presentation skills

Engagement

Critical thinking

Connection between self and culture

Connection with the wider world
