Everyone loves art……. the paint on the canvas, the actors on the screen and the words on the page, but we often take for granted the incredible journey it took to get those mediums in motion.

This week, First Lady Michelle Obama fiercely addressed the power of the arts by hosting the first-ever White House Turnaround Arts Talent Show in the East Room of the White House.

So what is Turnaround Arts? It’s a program created and implemented by the President’s Committee on Arts and Humanities (PCAH) to help build and stimulate and create arts education programs in some of the lowest performing elementary and middle schools around the US.
