What is Youth Art Month (YAM)?
YAM was created in 1961 as a service to art educators and the public with the following objectives:
- Recognize art as a necessity for the complete development of a high quality of life for all people
- Direct attention to art education as an effective vehicle to teach critical thinking, communication skills, self-expression and multi-cultural awareness
- Increase community, business and government support for art education
