Follow on Google News | CKR Interactive's EVP Gives Back to Keep Arts Alive in Local CommunityRecruitment marketing agency CKR Interactive's Craig Freitag shares his creative design expertise with local classroom.
By: CKR Interactive Freitag was concerned about the void left by cutting art programs and not providing a multidimensional education for students. "Fine arts are vulnerable to budget cuts partly because children are not tested in music or art under the No Child Left Behind act," he said. "It’s alarming how our children are losing out. It's such a powerful form of self expression that we simply can't leave it unexplored." Although there is a strong support for arts within the local community, there is simply not enough school funding to maintain art programs, forcing officials to find a way to offer fine arts with limited resources. Freitag, along with other parents that hold art degrees, are volunteering to teach the basics of visual arts, from exploration of different mediums to the appreciation of art history and work. Despite not having taught before, Freitag was not intimidated from volunteering to give back. "It's not about displaying the fine arts of teaching, but simply teaching the fine arts" Freitag explained. "I truly believe the future success of these students will be enhanced if they learn to unlock their creativity."
