Resolution 23-24-19 Youth Art Month.pdf
Summary: Youth Art Month (YAM) is an annual observance each March to emphasize the value of art and art education for all children, and to encourage public support for quality school art programs. Established in 1961, YAM provides a forum for acknowledging skills that are not possible in other subjects.

The Council For Art Education (CFAE), a sponsor of Youth Art Month, adopted the national theme for the 2023-2024 school year, "Dream in Art". Art Education develops self-esteem, appreciation of the work of others, self-expression, cooperation with others, and critical thinking skills. All of these skills are vital to the success of our future leaders - our children.
