We invite you to learn, create and have fun making art with us at The Artery!
Why Art?
Because ART connects us more deeply to the world,
and opens us to new ways of seeing and thinking and because art is FUN!
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

Connection between self and culture
Connection with the wider world
