Why should we learn the art?

Art is naturally bound up with creativity, an attribute that is increasingly presented as one of the most important factors for the success of individuals, organizations, and cultures.

The truth is that art is vital, though somewhat intangible, and if children engage in practical artistic activities, they learn far better in all disciplines.
