The end of the arts? I think not.

So a topic we talked about recently in class is about the idea that classical music is going downhill and possibly may not be practiced years down the road. I don't think that will happen, personally. Yes I know that music, especially orchestra, programs in schools are ending or definitely getting cut back and not many people are really supporting the arts. I still think though that there are many different people out there that are willing to find a way that the art programs will be continued. Yes a lot of the people who are currently supporting those programs are those who are older and soon might not be able to support them because of their age or whatnot. That is when people from my generation and the younger people who should take the step up and start supporting it when they can. I think the support is there just needs to be shown more. I have personally have grown up in different art programs may it be dance, music, or visual art; I have always really enjoyed them and never want them to leave. I will be spending my life surrounded by the arts because what I chose to study in school as well as what I do on my own time. So may it be writing children's books or playing my violin at an event, I will always be artsy. So that is why I have a strong grasp on wanting the arts to survive. I want children and people after me to enjoy them all just as much as I have and still do enjoy them. So in my opinion I don't think they will end or at least hopefully no time soon.
