Freedom Of Expression Forms Of Art

country is that they are part of our educational
system. The arts and art education teach us
design, organization, cooperation, creativity,
risk-taking, and most of all that we need to be
active participants in our society. I believe that
education is a main priority and therefore art
should be as well. Since 1965 the most prominent
source of government support for the arts has been
from the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA). In
