Letter writing topic for March 29, 2010:
March is Youth Art Month. Today, write a letter to a youngster and encourage him or her to pursue an art as a hobby or a career. If you can, send a sketch pad and some colored pencils or a coloring book and crayons. Share your own artistic inclinations. Then, write a letter to your local school district and let them know how important you think art education is to kids. According to the Arts & Creative Materials Institute, art education develops self-esteem, appreciation of the work of others, self-expression, cooperation with others, and critical thinking skills, skills vital to the success of our future leaders -- our children. Share art!
