Do you think more public schools should have magnet arts programs?

Eric S asked:

Like my school which you auditioned to get in and had music, dance, theatre, communications, visual art. And the concept was to fuse this in with academics.

You had all races and ethnicities and everybody was accepted as they were. But after coming out of a high school like that, you have idealistic expectations of the rest of the world.

Do you think the benefits of an art school program make them worthwhile?

What’s the best school for illustration/visual art?

somegirl asked:

I’m an art student and I want to transfer to an illustration program or major in visual arts. Anyone know of any really good schools? Is OCAD in Toronto any good? That seems to be the school that I’ll most likely be going to since I’m Canadian and studying abroad just seems to be too complicated. Studying abroad isn’t out of the question though, since I would really like to study in another country. Thanks for any help.
ultrasound schools
The reason why I’m asking if OCAD is any good is because where I live (Greater Vancouver Area), There’s Emily Carr Institute of Art & Design, and that school sucks major balls.

Why does visual art stress the importance of training so much?

kdfjj K asked:

I mean in terms of professional artists. Nearly every one of the well-known artists have been formally educated in art, and self-taught artists even today appear to be almost shunned.

The only reason this sticks out is because it’s nothing like that in similar fields…? I mean, people are acclaimed as musical geniuses without having ever stepped foot in a conservatory. People like Tolstoy and Dickens aren’t naturally expected to have studied Literature at an education institute. So why does art school almost seem like an indisputable requirement for visual artists?

Is a permit required to teach children visual arts in my home?

zmneuro asked:


My wife is an artist and has years of experience in teaching visual arts in different media to elementary school age kids. But that was back in our native country. Currently we are permanent residents in the US. She wants to offer similar classes in our home; she used to have 3-4 kids in one class, two classes per week. I wonder if she needs some sort of permit etc. (we are in PA). Thanks for the input!
