Awaken Your Inner Artist

Creative Ways to Celebrate October 25 is National Art Day, a day to celebrate all forms of art: drawing, painting, photography, sculpture, music, and more. Whether you’ve never crafted a piece of art before or you were a born expert, consider it your day to channel your inner artist!

The arts make our lives richer and spark boundless creativity and innovation. They contribute to the physical and emotional wellbeing of individuals, build bridges between cultures, nurture understanding, and strengthen our communities. They are fundamental to healthy societies, economies, and educational systems.

Creative Ways to Celebrate

There are many ways to celebrate art and artists this month. Visit local shops and galleries and pick out a painting, sketch, scarf, jewelry, sculpture, or a book of poetry that speaks to you. You could also see a concert, an opera, or visit the theater. If creating art from scratch isn’t your thing, do you take amazing photos? Snap some pictures of fall inspirations and choose a few to become decorative and repositionable PhotoSquares for your home, office, or dorm. Leave your photos as they are, spruce them up with a filter, or use an app that lets you transform them into a cartoon or watercolor painting!
