Art makes you smart

Numerous studies have been done that show how art effects individuals in positive ways. Art Centers, residency programs, museums and other institutions who interact with arts and community have a significant impact on learning development of elementary school age children. As expressed in a study written about in this NY Times article,  "most of the benefits we observed are significantly larger for minority students, low-income students and students from rural schools".
