The document discusses the importance of art and art education. It notes that art has been an important form of communication throughout human history. Recent budget cuts have reduced funding for art classes in schools. Several organizations work to raise funds to support art education, including United Arts Funds and Americans for the Arts. Studies have found benefits of art education for brain development and academic achievement. While art funding has decreased, foundations help provide financial support needed for art classes.

The cave drawing photo is a replica, is an actual historical cave drawing.
I wanted people to understand that art isn’t just a picture on a wall, art is so many different things, it can be in anything and everything if we just look around to see it.
These are the point main points that I wanted people to see, I took these from memory, so I don’t really have a source of information for this slide.
There was much more to the article, but I felt that this was a key point that needed to be touched on.
Art has always been important in brain development, some mothers even have their babies listen to music while their developing in the womb, because some studies say this helps the babies brain develop.
I wanted to show the viewer that art can be taught through other subjects as well, such as math, astrology and social studies.
These were just the quick facts from the website that I used to collect information about art education and it’s importance.
I feel like this is a very important foundation for the arts, they seem to have themselves out there more than the others – with commercials and a very useful website that anyone can use.
I wanted them to also know that there are many different foundations out there trying to help art stay in schools.
I just touched on the main points that I wanted people to take away from this powerpoint.
These are the resources I used for my powerpoint presentation.
