Art in some form or another has existed as long as man. It is a part of our daily lives and is present in cultures across the world. Most people have an appreciation for art. They enjoy observing it or creating it, they may even support it financially or by volunteering. Art is integral in our culture because it provides us with a deeper understanding of emotions, self-awareness, and more. The following are all reasons why I believe everyone needs art in their lives. 2

It is a natural part of us. There is a drive within all of us to create Records the and express ourselves through art. emotions of Observe any child with box full of society. crayons and a 8piece of paper and you will see it. I believe that drive comes It is important that we know our from a need to achieve a balance within history. We learn the dates, people and ourselves. That balance is felt when you places of important events, and we even are creating something exactly as you learn why and how they occurred. Art wish it to be. Sometimes other forms of gives us a different insight into our communication may fail to allow us to history. It shows us how those events express ourselves completely, and this is impacted the people living them. when we turn to art. Through art we learn the joy felt during times of happiness and we see the pain Helps us and despair during times of suffering. achieve a better We see the hopes and the dreams, or the self-awareness. fears and regrets of the past. Through art we gain a better understanding of how the events throughout history have shaped us into what we are today. We live in a fast-paced world of quick decisions and fragmented thoughts. Creating art allows us to slow down and experience the full range of our emotions. Viewing the art of others can give rise to emotions within us and help us explore and interpret what we are feeling. Understanding our emotions can help us heal, grow and improve ourselves. Increasing our self-awareness through art can lead to more success both personally and professionally. 4

Encourages critical thinking and better communication. Improves our When we create art we make decisions daily lives. throughout the entire process. When we view art we make decisions on how to interpret what we are seeing. We use logic and reason to attribute meaning to what we see or what we create. Because art has such an emotional connection to us, these choices are passionate to us. We learn to defend them and explain them to others. Art not only helps strengthen our critical thinking skills, but improves the way we communicate our thoughts and emotions to others. Art can make a community more Bridges the beautiful.

Oil Spill #12 (2010) WE MUST by Daniel Beltrá PROTECT Art Works for Change OUR OCEAN The world’s oceans are home to many of the Earth’s creatures and are a critical source of food for humanity. The health of our oceans has been adversely affected by plastic pollution, noise pollution, overfishing, climate change, and other human impacts. In this exhibit by Art Works for Change, ten contemporary artists consider the impact of humanity on our oceans and the critical importance of conservation efforts. In this aerial image, Daniel Beltrá captures the aftermath of the BP Horizon oil spill. Oil spills are an inherent risk of oil exploration, and such risks are magnified when humans pursue natural resources in remote regions. 7

Henry Lawrence Garfield (born February 13, 1961), better known as Henry Rollins, is an American singer, songwriter, musician, actor, presenter, comedian, and activist. He currently hosts a weekly radio show on KCRW, is a regular columnist for Rolling Stone Australia, and was a regular columnist for LA Weekly. After performing in the short-lived band State of Alert in 1980, Rollins fronted the California hardcore punk band Black Flag from 1981 to 1986. Following the band's breakup, he established the record label and publishing company 2.13.61 to release his spoken word albums, and formed the Rollins Band, which toured with a number of lineups from 1987 to 2003 (and again in 2006). 17
