Meaningful art\nactivities give young people a creative outlet for self-\nexpression as well as a heightened sensitivity to life\naround them.\nDuring this celebration parents and interested adults\nare encouraged to pay special attention to children's\nart and to support arts programs for the young.\nAs we enter the third century of our independence,\nwe look back with pride on the contributions our nation\nhas made to the vitality of the arts in music, painting,\nsculpture, literature and the performing arts. These\ncontributions must continue and they must be supported\nin their very earliest stages if we are to further enrich\nour cultural heritage and the individual self-fulfillment\nof future generations. In this spirit, I commend those\nwho participate in this worthwhile observance.\nHerald R. Ford"
