Why does creativity matter?
Research shows that involvement with the creative arts increases our capacity to
innovate as children and adults.
Creative arts are shown to increase, motivation, cooperation, and self-esteem.
Kids initiate their creative thinking abilities before they even develop reading, writing,
or arithmetic skills. It is creativity that drives innovation in everything… creativity is
what moves people to new ideas and advancements.
• Participation in the arts improves problem solving abilities.
• Creativity is shown to increase motivation, cooperation, and self-esteem
• A movement called STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Math) to STEAM

curve.
