Adult Art Class 2010

The Importance of Arts In Education

The arts are essential to the overall growth of the individual.  An education in the arts challenges people to look at the world in a different way by creating their own work and responding to works of art and the ideas they impart.

In addition to studying the arts for their own sake, experiencing and making works of art benefits students in their intellectual, personal and social development.  Research studies point to strong relationships between learning in the arts and fundamental cognitive skills and capacities used to master other core subjects, including reading, writing and mathematics.

Why is Art Education Important

It is proven that early exposure to visual art promotes activity in the brain.

Art helps children understand other subjects more clearly form maths and science to languages and geography.

Art nutures inventiveness as it engages children in a process that aids in the development of self-esteem, self-discipline, cooperation and self-motivation.

Participating in art activities help to gain the tools necessary to understand human experience, adapting to and respecting others’ way of working and thinking, developing creative problem-solving skills and communicating thoughts and ideas in a variety of ways.
