Answer:
Imagine a world without art, music, poetry, and stories. Such a world would lack the expression of much human creativity. It would be uninteresting, utilitarian, and devoid of entertainment, enjoyment, and the joy of living. When human ideas, expression, and creativity are forced to serve an overly rational or ideologically programmed agenda, when the mind and soul are collared by convention or chaffed by censorship, when freedom is suppressed, the arts suffer in fulfilling their purpose, which is, ultimately, to express the truth. Expression that is not free, is not full. It misleads since it does not tell the whole truth.
Self-expression through language, music, and imagery is an essential part of being human. As such, it is often the first casualty in times of inhumanity, war, fear, totalitarianism, terror, suspicion, and self-righteousness.
Art, in that it is the expression of truth, is not confined to what we often label as “the arts.” There is an art to any activity. How we order, explore, improve, and govern our lives is just as important, and can be as beautiful, as the most celebrated sculptures.
A political speech, for example, may not be very full of truth, but it still relies on the art of rhetoric to make a point and convince others. The sciences may seem supremely rational, but there is artistry involved in each equation, in the way numbers are used, in each supernova and black hole, and in the way plants and animals grow.
Each March, we celebrate Youth Art Month. There will be concerts, art shows, plays, and poetry recitals in McFarland schools and at the E.D. Locke Public Library. (A Youth Art Month reception will take place at the library on Thursday, March 1, from 5:30-7 p.m.) The McFarland Thistle will also be publishing student-created advertisements and student writing in its special section, “Adventures in Advertising,” in the March 29 issue.
