Other programming that children can benefit from educationally are the various art workshops offered throughout the year, such as crafting and jewelry making. The intention is to expose children to the diversity of the arts and broaden their experiences by learning how to make different things while doing crafts that are fun. Art is a form of education, and children often learn best by visual, auditory stimulation and being hands on. Art programs in public schools facilitated the learning process for children, making learning fun, which is why the UAG continues to promote art and to create programming for youth, because it is not only an essential component to their education, but to their self-development. With this grant, we will bring the power of art and music to the community by partnering with different community groups that work with children and adults.
