Support Arts In Education

Link: http://www.artsusa.org/

This month's cartoon was written for all of the dance moms, dads, and most importantly dance teachers out there who are entering "Recital Season". Thanks for all of the dedication and support you offer your children by allowing them to study dance!

The arts are so critical for the development of well rounded children who can think outside of the box. Children who study music, dance, theatre, and art are able to find creative solutions to all sorts of problems. They are self-confident, outgoing, develop a sensitivity to the world around them, and learn to see beauty even in the most mundane.

Support your local dance educators by attending a recital this spring and cheering on the hard work and effort of their dancers. Attend a play; your local high school's choir concert; or cheer on the marching band in your local Memorial Day Parade. You'll be glad you did!
