"When artists make art, they visualize connections between ideas, materials and processes. They explore possibilities, generate alternatives, and make choices. When kids make art, they learn how to visualize those same connections.
Skills fostered in an art program include seeing relationships, making associations, recognizing patterns, staying focused on the big picture, and making judgements."
These skills are the same as those needed for literacy and math. Art supports and enhances all curriculums.
