Getting out and into the community with young kids in the arts is so important. It is important for making your classroom feel more intimate, and from my experience has directly impacted the level of enthusiasm both in the kids and community members. It has also served a great purpose with a willingness to donate to the program. Simply activating three community art events over the past two years has lead to over $2,000 for my art club.
