Commentary on NAEP Arts Assessment
"Name That Instrument! The State of Arts Education" on The Takeaway.
Creating and Exploring Peace with Art
I have always believed that the opposite of love is not hate, but indifference.
The opposite of life is not death, but indifference.
The opposite of peace is not war, but indifference
to peace and indifference to war.
The opposite of culture, the opposite of beauty, the opposite of generosity is indifference.
Elie Wiesel,
Nobel Peace Laureate
