There is an old quote attributed to John Montagu, 4th Earl of Sandwich:
Ray Cornils
What does a 100+ year old pipe organ have to offer school children in today’s world?
Depending on where you live, the past several months might have inundated you with campaign ads (Virginia), or left you wondering – what election? Off year elections are like that, with some people hardly even noticing there was an election. While not as dramatic as even year elections, there were a fair amount of changes that should positively impact the arts overall.
It’s early in the new year but educators across the country are already making plans for the summer and they are thinking STEAM…with the arts playing a critical role.
As demand for a new workforce to meet the challenges of a global knowledge economy is rapidly increasing, few things could be as important in this period of our nation’s history than an interdisciplinary education that brings the arts and sciences together. Not surprisingly, so-called STEAM Camps signal an increased role for the arts as part of the new curriculum.
