  • Encourage your children to see and participate in the arts! Enroll them in acting, music, or visual arts classes. Take them to see children friendly plays, take them to the Art museum and the Philharmonic. Take some family time to paint, sing, dance and incorporate art in to play! By encouraging children to love the arts, we can guarantee that art will be alive for generations to come!
