Youth Art Month, 1976
Youth Art Month provides a national focus on quality
school art programs and on the general importance
of art in the educational process. Meaningful art
activities give young people a creative outlet for self-
expression as well as a heightened sensitivity to life
around them.
During this celebration parents and interested adults
are encouraged to pay special attention to children's
art and to support arts programs for the young.
As we enter the third century of our independence,
we look back with pride on the contributions our nation
has made to the vitality of the arts in music, painting,
sculpture, literature and the performing arts. These
contributions must continue and they must be supported
in their very earliest stages if we are to further enrich
our cultural heritage and the individual self-fulfillment
of future generations. In this spirit, I commend those
who participate in this worthwhile observance.
Herald R. Ford
