"Art and science are the only true things that we create that last beyond ourselves." Neil deGrasse Tyson
This is a great video clip discussing the importance of art education. Even though it is from a few years ago, the mindsets that are brought up I feel are still relevant to this day. At the end of this clip, Neil deGrasse Tyson says, "We measure our civilization by how well they treat their creative people." Do you feel the United States society treats their artists, dancers, writers, musicians, and all creatives well? What would the factors be if and when society does accept and celebrate a creative? Do you think how our society sees artists and the arts reflects in the fact that there are schools cutting the arts from their budget?
