Why do we art?

in creativestreet •  5 years ago 

The advocacy of Creative Street remains the same: To spread art among the children of the Philippines by conducting free art workshops, giving away art materials and more out reach programs designed especially for the underprivileged youth.

Why do we do these?

We believe that art is one way to direct the life of a child away from vices like drugs, violence, and crime as most number of road crimes involves youth. We wanted to change the way they view the world because there is really a good thing in doing art. It gives everyone hope in different perspectives.

Another thing is that we know that ART IS A GREAT THERAPHY. Many institutions use art theraphy for trauma victims, patients in drug user rehabilitation sites, youth and adults in correctionals, and even in schools. Art is therapeutic.

Art can express your emotions and unspoken words. Art is one way to communicate in ways we haven't tried.

Art is also a sociable activities, we have group art activities where children can show their social skills and the experience teaches cooperation and teamwork.

And many more...
