Art is so valuable to our community in so many ways. Join YES in our goal to enrich the lives of our children by supporting YES ART and the arts in our schools, art education, and art in your own homes with your own children. YES Art will be at ARTS in the PARK on Sept. 15 at Martin Luther King Park. Bring the entire family and stop by to say hi and see some amazing kid art.

If you sing, dance, draw, or act -- and especially if you watch others do so -- you probably have an altruistic streak, according to a new study.
