Is there a link between arts education and entrepreneurship? Signs point to yes!
A new study finds that exposure to the arts yields lifelong impacts
Friday, October 3, 2014
A study from Michigan State University found a strong connection between childhood arts or crafts education and adult business ventures later in life. In full, the findings were so surprising that researchers concluded that not only was there a link, but that arts and crafts in youth development are actually critical to economic innovation. This research is a powerful piece of evidence that could disprove the commonly held theory that the arts are merely an extra-curricular for students and thus easy to add or cut.
