the importance of art: |
"My love of art is its purpose to interact and respond; I think the more we weave art into our daily lives, into schools and libraries and alleys, into cereal boxes and T-shirts and handbags, the more powerful and necessary it becomes. Art is especially important for children because it gives them another tool with which to respond to the world in a positive way."
