"Art is perhaps humanity's most
essential, most universal language.
It is not a frill, but a necessary part
of communication. Indeed, the
quality of civilization can be
measured by the breadth of the
symbols used.
We need words,music, dance and
the visual arts to give
expression to theprofound urgings
of the human spirit."
Ernest L. Boyer, Carnegie Foundation
o
Like individual pieces of stained glass in a rose window
Each culture of the world has rich color and texture
making each unique.
Shared Commonalities form a framework for unity,
Connecting all peoples
To form a stimulating composition of contrast, and variety:
A mélange of Humanity.
