Why Every Child Deserves to Learn Art Not Just the "Talented" Ones

We sort children into "creative" and "not creative" before they're old enough to have a say. It's time to question who decided that and why.


At some point in childhood, most of us were told, directly or by silence, that art was not for us. Maybe someone's drawing got displayed on the classroom wall, and yours didn't. Maybe a well-meaning adult suggested you focus on "something more practical." Maybe you were simply never called creative, and so you stopped believing you were.

That moment. That quiet little verdict. It shapes how a person moves through the world for decades.

And here's the part that's worth sitting with: it was never really about ability. It was about who got permission to try.
