Nurturing the Arts, Celebrating Excellence, and Unveiling the Geometry of the Child's World

"When we teach a child to sing or play the flute, we teach her how to listen. When we teach her to draw, we teach her to see. When we teach a child to dance, we teach him about his body and about space, and when he acts on a stage, he learns about character and motivation. When we teach a child design, we reveal the geometry of the world. When we teach children about the folk and traditional arts and the great masterpieces of the world, we teach them to celebrate their roots and find their own place in history."

Archimedes Geometry Quotes


"What we do is look for high standards of excellence in the arts."
