Celebrate the Arts with Infobase
Whether it takes the form of painting, dance, or fashion, art can have a powerful impact on people, especially the young. It can inspire empathy and challenge us to see things from new points of view, plus creating our own art can boost creativity, strengthen motor skills, and even improve test scores. Infobase has content that can help inspire an appreciation for the arts and even encourage patrons of all ages to create their own, from handouts that can help elementary students get creative, to illustrated articles on the history of dance, to videos on the lives and works of renowned artists.
