Self-expression is incredibly important to the development of young minds. Kids and teens need self-expression to explore themselves and their surroundings. This guide features the work of seven diverse and passionate artists creating art through atypical styles and mediums. The discussion questions and projects are meant to challenge any notions of what is good art and bad art to understanding art as a form of expression.
