The Cultural Learning Alliance champions a right to art and culture for every child
Art teaches things like resilience, creativity, curiosity, teamwork, social skills, communication skills. It also teaches children how to fail and persevere until they succeed.
If we don’t teach art in schools, our children will not have these advantages later on in life.
