Last year President Barack Obama signed and released a striking, heartfelt proclamation urging all Americans to celebrate National Arts and Humanities Month. Unfortunately many in my circle of art friends and supporters were not aware of this great deed!! And with my list of other things to do and prioritize, I was not able to do as much as planned. But fortunately with the help of Coach Dave Crenshaw we managed to include a some arts and crafts during their annual Halloween Celebration to celebrate this important arts month. To read a copy of the Proclamation please visit: https://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2015/09/29/presidential-proclamation-national-arts-and-humanities-month-2015. And for more information about Americans for the Arts visit: http://www.americansforthearts.org/events/national-arts-and-humanities-month. Here you can list your events planned for the year and get ready for next year's National Arts and Humanities Month.
