After our class discussion, I was compelled to research more on the benefits of incorporating the arts into the everyday classroom. I came across a resourceful site, Americans for the Arts, which promotes public awareness of arts education. Many of the benefits we discussed in class such as promoting self confidence, cognitive development and self expression were reiterated. The site is a great resource for educators as well as parents by providing simple ways to incorporate arts at home. Locally, in the Rock Hill area there are two official campaign partners, The South Carolina Arts Alliance and Arts Council of Rock Hill and York County.
