“The life of the arts, far from being an interruption, a
distraction, in the life of a nation, is close to the center of a
nation's purpose — and is a test of the quality of a nation's
civilization.”
— John F. Kennedy Jr.
“I believe arts education in music, theater,
dance and the visual arts is one of the most creative ways we have
to find the gold that is buried just beneath the surface. They
[children] have an enthusiasm for life, a spark of creativity and
vivid imaginations that need training…training that prepares them to
become confident young men and women.”
— former U.S. Secretary of Education Richard W. Riley
